    involves injecting proteins to stimulate hair regrowth

    Growth Factor Therapy (GFT) involves the use of naturally occurring proteins, known as growth factors, to stimulate cellular growth, proliferation, and healing. In the context of hair loss, GFT can be administered through injections to the scalp to promote hair follicle health and encourage hair regrowth by enhancing the activity of dermal papilla cells, which play a crucial role in hair formation and cycling.
