GFC HAIR REGENERATION
GFC Hair Regeneration at NURIM Dermatech is a personalized regenerative hair treatment designed to support hair follicles, improve hair quality and encourage healthier-looking growth.
“YOUR HAIR ! YOUR BIOLOGY ! YOUR PROTOCOL”
GFC Therapy is an advanced autologous regenerative treatment that uses growth-factor-rich components derived from the patient’s own blood. Growth factors play an important role in the communication between cells and are involved in processes associated with tissue repair, cellular activity and regeneration. Healthy-looking hair depends on a complex interaction between the hair follicle, surrounding tissue, blood supply and scalp environment. Nurim approach is to hair regeneration is focused on subtle, progressive and natural-looking improvement – helping your hair appear denser, healthier, stronger and more youthful, while respecting the individuality of your natural hair pattern.
TREATMENT PROCEDURE OF GFC HAIR REGENERATION:
At nurim, every GFC treatment is planned around the individual – not a standardised injection pattern. GFC treatment is performed through a carefully controlled, multi-step protocol designed to prepare and deliver a concentrated growth-factor preparation to targeted areas of the scalp.
Step 1: Hair & scalp Consultation-
Your treatment begins with a detailed assessment of your hair and scalp. Our expert clinicians evaluate the pattern of hair thinning, scalp condition, hair density and follicular health to determine whether GFC is suitable for you.
Step 2: Personalized Treatment Planning –
Based on your assessment, the areas requiring treatment are precisely mapped. The treatment protocol – including the number of sessions and treatment intervals – is tailored to your individual hair-restoration goals.
Step 3: Blood Collection-
A small quantity of your own blood is collected using a sterile, clinical technique. Because the preparation is autologous, it’s derived from your own biological material.
Step 4: Growth Factor Concentration –
The collected blood is processes using a specialized GFC preparation system. This separates and concentrates selected growth-factor-rich components from the blood for subsequent scalp application.
Step 5: Precision Scalp Treatment –
After preparing the scalp and applying appropriate local anaesthesia or numbing measures where required, the GFC preparation is delivered through multiple precise injections into selected areas of the scalp.
The placement and depth are carefully controlled according to the treatment area and individual anatomy.
Step 6: Post-Treatment Care:
Following the procedure, your scalp is gently cleansed, and you are provided with personalised aftercare instructions. Most patients can return to their normal routine relatively quickly, although temporary redness, tenderness or mild swelling can occur.
Step 7: Progressive Regenerative Response:
GFC is designed to work progressively rather than provide an immediate change. Over the following weeks and months, the treatment aims to support the scalp environment and follicular activity, with changes in hair quality and density assessed over time.
