Overview
Hair loss is a deeply personal concern that affects millions of men and women across India. Whether caused by genetic androgenetic alopecia, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, postpartum hair fall, or stress — PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) therapy represent the most advanced, scientifically validated, and natural approach to hair restoration available today. At Dr. Sonali Gupta’s clinic at Accord Hospital, Faridabad, these treatments are performed with the highest standards of clinical excellence, making her one of the best hair loss specialists in Delhi NCR.
What is PRP for Hair?
PRP therapy harnesses the healing power of your own blood. A small sample of blood is drawn from your arm and placed in a centrifuge — a medical device that spins the blood at high speed to separate its components. The platelet-rich plasma, which is concentrated with powerful growth factors including PDGF, EGF, IGF, VEGF, and FGF, is isolated and then injected directly into the scalp at the level of the hair follicles. These growth factors stimulate dormant follicles, prolong the active growth phase of hair, increase blood supply to follicles, and significantly reduce hair fall — leading to visibly thicker, denser, and healthier hair over time.
What is GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate)?
GFC is the next evolution of PRP. While PRP uses platelet-rich plasma directly, GFC involves an additional activation step that releases growth factors from the platelets into a concentrated solution. This results in a preparation with significantly higher concentrations of growth factors than standard PRP, translating to more potent stimulation of hair follicles with fewer sessions needed. GFC is particularly recommended for patients who have not achieved satisfactory results from PRP alone, or for those seeking faster, more pronounced outcomes. Dr. Gupta’s clinic is one of the few in Faridabad and Delhi NCR offering GFC as a routine hair restoration treatment.
PRP / GFC for Skin Rejuvenation
Beyond hair, PRP and GFC have transformative benefits for skin. When injected or micro-needled into the face, these growth factor-rich preparations stimulate collagen synthesis, improve skin elasticity, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, enhance skin texture, and restore a youthful, luminous glow. This application — often called the “Vampire Facial” — has become extremely popular among patients seeking natural anti-aging treatments without synthetic fillers or toxins.
PRP skin therapy is particularly effective for: fine lines around the eyes and mouth, dull and tired-looking skin, thin or sagging skin, acne scar improvement (combined with microneedling), and overall facial rejuvenation.
What to Expect: The Treatment Journey
The procedure is straightforward and typically takes 45 to 60 minutes. After blood collection and centrifugation, the scalp or face is prepared with a topical anaesthetic. The PRP or GFC solution is then administered via microinjections. The treatment is well-tolerated, and most patients return to normal activities the same day. A mild soreness or tightness at the injection sites may persist for 24 to 48 hours.
For hair, a course of 3 to 6 monthly sessions is recommended, followed by maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months. For skin, 3 monthly sessions typically deliver excellent rejuvenating results.
Why Patients Trust Dr. Sonali Gupta for PRP/GFC
The quality of PRP and GFC is directly influenced by the technique, centrifugation protocol, and the injector’s skill. Dr. Gupta’s extensive training and 16+ years of hands-on experience ensure that every procedure maximises the concentration and viability of growth factors, and that injections are placed precisely at the correct depth for maximum follicular stimulation. She is widely regarded as the best PRP specialist in Faridabad and Delhi NCR for both hair and skin applications.
