What Is GFC

Your own biology, concentrated and reapplied.

GFC — Growth Factor Concentrate — is a regenerative hair therapy that uses a concentrate derived from your own blood to nourish and strengthen weakened hair follicles.

A small blood sample is processed to isolate a growth-factor-rich concentrate, which is then micro-injected into the scalp at the follicle level.

Because it's derived from your own body, GFC is naturally biocompatible — making it a gentle option for ongoing hair-health maintenance.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything patients usually ask before their first GFC session.

How is GFC different from PRP?

GFC is a more refined, concentrated version of PRP, isolating a higher concentration of growth factors for follicle support.

Is the blood draw safe?

Yes — it's a small sample drawn the same way as a routine blood test, by trained staff.

Does the injection process hurt?

A numbing cream is applied beforehand, so most patients find it very tolerable.

How soon will I see results?

Reduced shedding is often noticed within 4–6 weeks, with improved density typically over 3–6 months.

How many sessions will I need?

A course of 4–6 monthly sessions is typical, based on your scalp assessment at consultation.

Can GFC be combined with QR678?

Yes — the two are often used together as complementary parts of a hair-regrowth plan.
