Successful hair loss treatment requires identifying the underlying cause of hair loss. There are various ways to treat hair loss, including at-home treatment with minoxidil and clinic-based procedures such as lasers, growth factor therapy, and microneedling.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained popularity due to its regenerative potential. PRP injection is a simple, cost-effective, and feasible hair loss treatment option. The procedure is repeated monthly for the first three months, with subsequent sessions spaced three to six months apart for the next year to maintain the beneficial effect.

This highly safe, dedicated, and concentrated growth factor preparation offers superior natural results. GFC is collected from the candidate’s blood cells and administered at the site to be treated.
This advanced and latest hair loss treatment helps achieve the best results in only three to four sittings:

Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata (AA) is a type of autoimmune dermatological condition characterized by patchy hair loss. The term “Alopecia” refers to baldness, and “Areata” indicates a patchy type of hair loss. This chronic inflammatory disease affects the hair follicles and can cause hair loss in various parts of the body, although it most commonly occurs on the scalp. In individuals with this condition, hair typically falls out in small, round patches that are approximately the size of a quarter, leaving behind coin-sized areas of bare scalp. Although hair loss can be extensive and unpredictable in many cases, it is not contagious.
