PRP vs GFC: A Dermatologist's Way to Compare Them

Both PRP and Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC) use components derived from your blood to support hair follicles — but preparation and growth factor profiles differ.

PRP

Platelet-rich plasma — widely studied, versatile for hair and skin, technique-dependent.

GFC

More concentrated growth factor preparation — may be selected for specific early alopecia cases at our clinic.

Which is for you?

Choice depends on diagnosis, stage of hair loss, and response history — not social media trends. Examination first; marketing second.
