Growth Factor Hair Treatment Success Rate & Reviews

Numerous studies worldwide indicate that Growth Factor therapy is one of the most successful non-surgical methods to treat hair loss, thinning hair and pattern baldness. It will increase the duration of the growth phase of hair, reduce hair fall, and reverse thinning to an extent which ultimately helps in improving the scalp coverage by boosting natural hair regrowth. After the initial sessions, you will notice a reduction in hair fall. The result of treatment is evident after the third session as you will start noticing visible changes.

Depending on the grade of hair loss and degree of thinning of hair, your dermatologist will decide the number of sessions of Growth Factor you require; and maintenance sessions if any; along with the necessary medical treatment in the form of topical applicants and oral medications etc.

Considering its simplicity, safety, and cost-effectiveness, doctors consider Growth Factor hair treatment a feasible treatment option for patterned hair loss not only in males but females as well, along with the adjuvant medications.
