Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) therapy is a regenerative scalp treatment prepared from a small sample of the patient’s own blood. The concentrated growth factors are introduced into selected thinning areas of the scalp to support weak follicles and improve hair quality in suitable patients. At EPYX DERMA, Dr. Suhasini recommends GFC only after identifying the cause and stage of hair loss.
Before treatment, Dr. Suhasini evaluates the scalp, hair-loss pattern, duration, family history, nutritional or hormonal factors and previous therapies. GFC is generally used as part of a complete hair-restoration plan and may be combined with medicines, LLLT or other scalp treatments when clinically appropriate.
- Dermatologist-guided regenerative treatment using autologous growth factors.
- Customized session plan based on diagnosis, severity and scalp condition.
- May help reduce shedding and improve hair thickness in suitable patients.
- Can be combined with medicines, LLLT or other hair-loss treatments when advised.
- Uses the patient’s own blood-derived growth factors with minimal downtime.
- Clear guidance regarding session intervals, aftercare and realistic outcomes.
Personalized GFC therapy for stronger, healthier-looking hair
We focus on correct diagnosis, sterile preparation, precise scalp delivery and realistic expectations so GFC is used safely as part of a complete hair-restoration plan.
accurate hair-loss assessment
The scalp, hair-loss pattern, duration, medical history and previous treatments are assessed before recommending GFC.
concentrated growth factors
A blood sample is processed under sterile conditions to prepare a concentrated growth-factor solution for scalp treatment.
precise scalp delivery
The prepared concentrate is delivered into selected thinning areas according to the individual scalp and hair-loss pattern.
follow-up & maintenance
Results develop gradually, so scheduled sessions, medical treatment and maintenance follow-up may be required.
Dermatologist-led GFC therapy for gradual hair restoration
Our approach prioritizes accurate diagnosis and individualized care. GFC may improve shedding, hair thickness or density in suitable patients, but results vary and advanced bald areas may not respond adequately.

Frequently asked questions
GFC is a regenerative hair treatment in which growth factors are concentrated from a small sample of the patient’s own blood and introduced into thinning areas of the scalp.
It may be considered for men and women with early-to-moderate pattern hair loss, diffuse thinning or increased shedding when active follicles are still present. Suitability depends on the diagnosis.
Some patients may notice reduced shedding and improvement in hair quality, thickness or density. Results vary, and GFC cannot reliably restore hair in completely bald or scarred areas.
The number and interval of sessions depend on the diagnosis, severity and response. Dr. Suhasini will recommend a personalized schedule and maintenance plan.
A numbing method may be used to improve comfort. Mild tenderness, redness, swelling or pinpoint bruising can occur temporarily, but most patients return to routine activities soon after treatment.
