The hair loss doctor in Delhi at Citrine Clinic first reviews the patient’s hair loss pattern/severity and scalp health, medical records, and existing prescriptions to provide a suitable treatment plan. Photographs may be taken of areas to be treated for future comparison with results.
Two or three days before the treatment, the professional recommends avoiding blood-thinning and anti-inflammatory medications, alcohol consumption, smoking, and harsh hair styling or treatments. The focus should be on good hydration and nourishment, a healthy/active routine, and good scalp hygiene.
The professional will take approximately 15-20mL of blood from the patient’s arm, as in a routine blood test. This blood will be collected in a specialised GFC tube and centrifuged at 3400 rpm for 10 minutes to get only purified serum of growth factors. The pure GFC will be taken in a separate tube.
Next, the professional will use a local anaesthetic injection or a topical numbing agent on the area to be treated. The professional will carefully inject the GFC serum into the treatment areas in a grid-like pattern using fine, sterile needles.
The overall procedure takes 30 to 45 minutes, or longer, depending on the size of the targeted area.
The follow-up visits are scheduled, and aftercare guidelines are shared.
