What is the Treatment Using Growth Factors?

Why Consider Injections Using Growth Factors?

Growth Factors is a fantastic treatment for patients who are frustrating with the loss of fullness and density in their hair but are not candidates for a full hair transplant surgery. For patients suffering androgenic alopecia (male pattern baldness) and are starting to shed hair, Growth Factors are the first-line treatment to stop this process. Growth Factors treatments are typically a no downtown procedure that allows patients to gain some visible density in their hair without undergoing a bigger procedure. Growth Factor uses your own blood and concentrates the platelet portion which contains many growth factors and cytokines that can stimulate the activity of hair follicles to produce new growth.

Growth Factors FAQs

What are growth factors?

Growth factors are naturally occurring proteins that play a vital role in promoting hair growth and maintaining hair follicle health. These proteins are involved in various cellular processes, including stimulating the activity of hair follicle stem cells, promoting blood circulation to the scalp, and enhancing the overall environment for hair growth.

What are the Growth Factor injections like?

Growth Factor injections are done in the office and take approximately 30min-60 minutes to complete. First, blood is drawn from the patient and then processed into Growth Factor which concentrates the growth factors and signaling messengers in the sample. This is then injected within the hair follicles with small syringes and needles. Once the treatment is complete the patient is allowed to go home and encouraged to wash their hair that evening.  

How many treatments are recommended for the best results?

It is recommended to have 3-4 treatments for maximum benefit. Typically the treatments occur every 1-2 months and maximum results are judged 4 months. After the first set of treatments are completed, additional upkeep treatments every 6 months are recommended to maintain results. 

Can growth factors in skin care cause cancer?

No, it’s a myth. While growth factors in skincare can promote cell proliferation, they are not considered mutagenic and do not alter cells to make them cancerous. There is no substantial scientific evidence to support the claim that growth factors in skincare can cause cancer.

What are the most important factors influencing hair growth?

Several factors influence hair growth, and their interactions can determine the health and rate of hair growth. Some of the most important factors include: genetics, hormones, age, nuutrition, stress, medical conditions, medications, hair care practices, blood circulationand lifestyle factors.
