A new, natural hair regrowth treatment at Kamakshi Skin Clinics

Experiencing hair loss can be difficult to cope with emotionally, just as it can be fraught for men and women. Whether it be due to stress or genetics, hormonal factors or nutritional deficits, hair loss can affect how we feel about ourselves. Hair loss can be damaging to self-esteem and self-confidence. At Kamakshi Skin Clinics, a progressive, safe, and non-surgical option — an advanced form of GFC Therapy (Growth Factor Concentrate Therapy) — tosolve your hair loss needs safely and biologically.

What is GFC Therapy?

GFC therapy is the most innovative hair restoration procedure. GFC therapy utilizes your body’s own healing properties from your blood to stimulate hair regrowth. It is a safe, minimally-invasive procedure that takes your platelets and uses a concentration of growth factors to stimulate dormant or resting hair follicles and restore health back to your scalp.

The best part is, your blood contains high concentrations of the following growth factors:

PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor): Increases blood supply to the follicles and builds follicle strength;

VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor): Promotes hair growth phase by increasing blood vessel formation;

EGF (epidermal growth factor): Affects everything from follicle regeneration to cell turnover on the scalp;

IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor): Aids follicles to be longer, and grow healthier and thicker.

So How Does It Work?

The Procedure is quick, clinic based, safe and easy.

Blood Draw: You have a small amount of blood taken.

GFC: This blood is processed in a specialized tube to attain the platelet-rich growth factors.  

Injection: GFC is injected into your thinning hair area’s.

 

What To Expect

Comfortable & Safe: It is a virtually painless procedure and has no downtime.

Natural Results: The treatment uses your own blood, therefore there is little chance of an allergic reaction or side effects.

Visible Improvements: After 3–4 sessions, you will most likely see advancements in the thickness of your hair and reduction of hair fall.

When Will You See Results?

Patients typically see their first visible results after a few sittings. Your doctor will recommend a unique treatment regime to best provide hair regrowth and density based on the degree of hair loss.
