Hair Revival with Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC)
While most individuals search for an external hair treatment in the case of hair thinning and hair loss, little do they know that the treatment lies within their body. Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) is a high-tech treatment method that uses platelets and various other substances from a client’s own blood to resolve issues such as hair fall, hair thinning, etc. The treatment is also quite effective in improving scalp skin health.Â
The treatment starts by extracting a small amount of blood from the client himself and it is then processed for extracting the right components such as insulin and/or platelets for injecting into the scalp. Growth Factor Concentrate is a 100% natural procedure and doesn’t include chemicals or artificial substances. This is simply extracting the healing factors from your own body and utilizing them for stimulating hair growth and hair rejuvenation.
Growth Factor Concentrate Treatment Details –
While Growth Factor Treatment for hair rejuvenation is pretty straightforward, it still involves extracting different types of substances for dealing with different skin issues. Here is a detailed overview of different types of growth factors extracted from the process.
- Platelet-Derived Growth Factor (PGDF)
- Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)
- Insulin Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)
- Vascular Endothilial Growth Factor (VEGF)
All 4 factors are quite critical in their own way and they are also responsible for stimulating various processes beneath the skin that ultimately promote good hair and skin health. These factors target the root cause of the problem instead of addressing the symptom and therefore, are more impactful and result-oriented.
Growth Factor Concentrate Treatment Procedure –
- Step – 1: The procedure starts with extracting 15-18ml of blood from the client himself and it is then distributed into four GFC tubes for processing.
- Step – 2: The tubes are rotated and inverted multiple times and then rested for about 30 minutes, so the blood gets mixed well with platelet-activating solution. It will slowly release PGDF, EGF, IGF-1, and VEGF from platelets. The purpose of this procedure is to release and extract the growth factors, so they can be further utilized for the procedure.
- Step – 3: All the tubes are rotated within a centrifuge at high rpm for at least 10 minutes, so the growth factors are released from white blood cells and red blood cells.
- Step – 4: After the centrifuge step, the growth factors are released and they are collected with a syringe from the cap of the tube. This enables maximum collection and almost zero wastage of GFC during the collection process.
- Step – 5: The GFC is now transferred to the injecting needles as it is ready to be injected into your scalp.
