GFC · what to expect

GFC side effects and results

GFC is made from your own blood and has no downtime. Side effects are usually mild and short-lived, and results build over a course of sessions rather than after one.

What GFC is

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is a refined form of PRP. A small amount of your blood is processed to isolate a high concentration of growth factors, such as PDGF, VEGF and IGF-1, which are injected into the scalp to support follicles that are still active.

Possible side effects

Because GFC is made from your own blood, no foreign substance is involved. Your doctor reviews your medical history before treatment.

EffectWhat to expect
Mild rednessWhere the scalp was treated; usually settles within a day or two
Slight swelling or tendernessShort-lived; GFC typically causes less than PRP
Pinpoint marksAt the injection sites, hidden by the hair and fading quickly

Who tends to respond

GFC does not regrow hair where follicles have been lost. In that case, an HST transplant is the option that restores hair.

  • People with early thinning, where follicles are still active
  • People whose hair fall cause has been checked and treated alongside, such as low iron or a nutritional deficiency
  • People who complete the full course rather than stopping after one or two sessions

Is there a success rate?

Results vary with the cause and stage of hair loss, so a single percentage would not be honest. Your doctor reviews your scalp across the course and adjusts the plan, sometimes adding exosome therapy.*
