Is GFC better than PRP for hair loss?

GFC delivers a higher concentration of growth factors because the platelets are lysed to release all their contents, whereas in PRP the growth factors remain inside intact platelets. In practice, both produce meaningful results for hair loss. GFC may have a marginal advantage in growth factor delivery but both are clinically effective. Dr. Bharathi recommends based on your specific hair loss pattern, budget, and the number of sessions planned.

How many sessions of GFC or PRP do I need?

Most patients require three to four sessions spaced four weeks apart for an initial course of treatment. Maintenance sessions every four to six months are recommended to sustain results. Hair loss is a progressive condition and ongoing treatment gives better long-term outcomes than a single course alone.

Is the treatment painful?

A numbing cream is applied to the scalp or skin before injection. Most patients describe the injections as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. GFC is slightly more comfortable than PRP because it does not use activating agents. The procedure takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes including preparation time.

Are GFC and PRP treatments safe?

Both treatments use your own blood, making the risk of allergic reaction or rejection essentially zero. Risks are limited to temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, which resolves within 24 to 48 hours. As with any injection, there is a small risk of infection, which is minimised by sterile technique. At Aesthetic Studio, all injections are administered by Dr. Bharathi personally.

Who is a good candidate for GFC or PRP for hair loss?

Good candidates are men and women experiencing early to moderate hair thinning or androgenetic alopecia where follicles are still active. The treatment is less effective in areas of complete baldness where follicles are no longer present. Dr. Bharathi assesses your hair loss pattern and scalp health at consultation and advises on whether GFC or PRP is appropriate for your specific situation. (If you are also interested in facial rejuvenation, you can learn about our advanced Botox & fillers treatments.)

Can GFC or PRP be combined with hair transplant?

Yes. GFC or PRP is frequently used alongside hair transplant surgery to improve graft survival, reduce post-transplant shedding, and accelerate the establishment of new follicles. At Aesthetic Studio, Dr. Bharathi advises on the optimal combination and timing based on your hair transplant plan.

PRP and GFC Hair Treatment in Chennai

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) are non-surgical treatments that use growth factors extracted from your own blood to stimulate hair regrowth and skin rejuvenation. At Aesthetic Studio, Chennai, both treatments are administered by Dr. Bharathi Rajasridhar, MCh Plastic Surgery. A course of three to four sessions spaced four weeks apart is typically required for optimal results.

Growth factor concentration	Higher: platelets are lysed to release all growth factors	Lower: growth factors still inside intact platelets
Preparation method	Specialised kit with platelet activation step	Standard centrifuge, no activation step
Pain on injection	Slightly less: no activation agents used	Slightly more: activating agents such as calcium can sting
Results	Comparable or marginally better in studies	Well-established, extensive research base
Cost	Slightly higher due to processing kit	Lower cost per session

What GFC and PRP Are Used For

Hair Loss (Androgenetic Alopecia & Other Causes)

Both GFC and PRP are used to stimulate dormant hair follicles, slow the progression of hair loss, and improve hair density. They work best in the early to mid stages of hair loss when follicles are still present but thinning. They are not effective where follicles have completely ceased to function. Results are visible after three to four sessions and continue to improve over six months.

Skin Rejuvenation

When injected into the skin, growth factors stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and improve overall skin quality. GFC and PRP for skin rejuvenation are used for face, neck, and hand treatments. The results are gradual and natural looking, improving over two to three months after each session.
