GFC vs PRP Hair
GFC vs PRP Hair treatments at Alloroots are assessed and performed by Dr. Alok Kumar Sahoo (MD Dermatology, AIIMS New Delhi). After an in-clinic or online consultation, you can choose between Growth Factor Hair Therapy (GFC) and PRP Hair Restoration Therapy based on scalp evaluation, medical history, and hair loss stage. Both use your own blood components to stimulate follicle activity, helping slow shedding and improve density. Before-and-after records are kept private and shared only with your consent.
Choosing between GFC and PRP hair therapy
Both deliver autologous growth factors to the scalp. GFC isolates a concentrated mix, PRP delivers them in plasma form. Decision factors include session count, comfort, and budget.
- GFC concentration can reduce the number of sittings for a course.
- PRP is widely available and usually costs less per session.
- Either can be paired with i-PRF, ACell+PRP, or Exosome Therapy for broader regenerative care.
Key differences and practical considerations
GFC may show earlier thickening and diameter gains, PRP is valued for gradual strengthening. GFC uses a proprietary concentration step, PRP relies on standard centrifugation. Pain levels are mild for both; GFC often involves fewer injections per cycle. PRP schedules may require more frequent visits. Plans are set after trichoscopic review.
If combining with low-level laser therapy, topical minoxidil, or microneedling, discuss timing to avoid irritation. In some cases Dr. Sahoo may advise Advanced Cell + PRP Hair Restoration to support weak follicles.
Booking is simple: reserve a slot online or by phone. Allow 45-60 minutes for the first visit including assessment and procedure.
When each option may suit best
Those seeking higher growth factor yield with fewer sittings often choose GFC, especially in early thinning. PRP may suit moderate loss and offers a familiar, flexible option. Both require ongoing scalp care and periodic review to maintain benefits. Nutrition, stress, and underlying health are addressed before starting. All clinical images and data stay within secure patient files.
