Hair Loss Treatment in Bangalore — by Hair Specialist Doctors
Hair fall has a cause — hormonal, nutritional, genetic, or stress-driven — and the treatment that works depends on which one is yours. MD dermatologists at Indiranagar & Sahakarnagar diagnose first, then choose between GFC, QR678, PRP, medication, or transplant.

Hair Doctor, Trichologist, or Dermatologist — Who Should You See?
The single most searched question, so here's the straight answer: an MD dermatologist is the most qualified hair doctor — a medical specialist trained in scalp and hair disorders, able to diagnose the cause, order and interpret blood work, prescribe medication, and perform procedures. If you've been searching for a “trichologist near me,” a dermatology consultation is the medical version of that visit. At Calyx, every hair consultation is with an MD dermatologist who examines your scalp, reviews your history (and blood work where needed), names the diagnosis, and only then talks treatment.
GFC Hair Treatment (Growth Factor Concentrate) — from ₹8,000/Session
GFC is the refined evolution of PRP: your own blood is processed to extract a pure, high-concentration dose of growth factors — no red cells, no debris — which is injected into thinning areas to reactivate weakening follicles. Because the concentrate is purer than classic PRP, sessions are more consistent and typically less uncomfortable. Best suited to early and moderate thinning in men and women. Course of sessions spaced a month apart — typically 4–6 sessions — with visible density changes usually from the third month.
QR678 Hair Regrowth Treatment — from ₹15,000/Session
QR678 is a patented, peptide-based hair regrowth formulation — a plant-derived growth-factor solution injected directly into the scalp, no blood draw needed. It's clinically studied for male and female pattern hair loss, postpartum shedding, and telogen effluvium, and is a strong option for people who want a needle-light, blood-free protocol or whose PRP/GFC response has plateaued. Painless, zero downtime, about 30–40 minutes per session.
PRP Hair Treatment — from ₹6,000/Session
The established classic: platelets from your own blood, concentrated and injected to stimulate follicles. Still a solid, evidence-backed choice, and the most budget-friendly starting point at ₹6,000 per session. For many patients we recommend GFC, its purer next-generation form; your dermatologist will tell you honestly which suits your case.
GFC vs QR678 vs PRP — an Honest Comparison
| GFC | QR678 | PRP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it is | Purified growth factors from your blood | Patented plant-derived peptide formulation | Concentrated platelets from your blood |
| Blood draw | Yes | No | Yes |
| Best for | Early–moderate thinning | Pattern loss, postpartum, PRP plateau | Early thinning |
| Session time | ~45–60 min | ~30–40 min | ~45–60 min |
| Price/session | From ₹8,000 | From ₹15,000 | From ₹6,000 |
No treatment on this table is “the best” — the right one depends on your diagnosis, stage, and preferences, which is what the consultation is for. Combinations (e.g. GFC + prescription medication) are common and often outperform any single treatment.
Female Hair Loss & Thinning
Widening partings, postpartum shedding, thinning ponytails — female hair loss is different from male balding and is frequently driven by iron deficiency, thyroid issues, PCOS, or postpartum hormone shifts. That's why treatment starts with finding the driver (sometimes with simple blood work), not with a package. GFC, QR678, and prescription care all work for women; the mix depends on the diagnosis.
Hair Loss in Men — Act While the Follicles Are Alive
Male pattern baldness is progressive: treatments like GFC, QR678, and prescription medication work on thinning follicles, not bald skin. The receding-hairline stage is exactly when clinical treatment changes the trajectory — wait five years and the honest conversation becomes transplant instead. Book while you have more to save.
Alopecia Areata (Patchy Hair Loss)
Sudden round bald patches are usually alopecia areata — an autoimmune condition, completely different from pattern baldness, and very treatable when addressed early by a dermatologist (typically with targeted injections and prescription therapy). If a patch appeared in recent weeks, don't wait and don't experiment: this one genuinely needs a doctor.
Before You Buy Another Oil, Kit, or Online Hair Test
The honest hierarchy: oils and shampoos condition hair but don't regrow it; online hair-test kits give you a questionnaire's guess, not a scalp examination; and prescription treatments genuinely work — but work best when prescribed at the right strength, for the right diagnosis, alongside treatment of the underlying cause. Where indicated, our dermatologists prescribe medications as part of your plan. A dermatologist visit usually costs less than the third kit you were about to order, and ends the guessing.
Hair Transplant — from ₹30,000
Where follicles are gone rather than thinning, transplant is the honest answer. We perform hair transplants with pricing based on the number of grafts you need (from ₹30,000, quoted precisely after assessment). Visit our dedicated hair transplant page →
Diagnosis First — Because Hair Fall Is a Symptom
Hair fall is a symptom with many possible causes: androgenetic (pattern), telogen effluvium (stress/illness/postpartum shedding), nutritional deficiency, thyroid imbalance, autoimmune. Treating the wrong one wastes months. Your first visit is a dermatologist's scalp and hair examination, history review, and — where indicated — blood work for deficiencies, thyroid, and hormonal causes — ordered and reviewed by your dermatologist. You leave with a named diagnosis, a plan (procedures, prescriptions, or both), the session count, and the cost.
Am I a Candidate?
GFC/PRP/QR678 suit most adults with active thinning. Your dermatologist may defer or adapt treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with active scalp infections or severe dandruff flares, blood or platelet disorders (for PRP/GFC), or certain medications. Advanced baldness is assessed honestly for transplant instead of being sold sessions.

What Patients Say About Hair Loss Treatment at Calyx
“Started GFC sessions after months of trying oils and supplements. The doctor actually diagnosed why my hair was falling first. Four sessions in, the shedding has visibly reduced.”
“Did QR678 for my receding hairline. No blood draw, quick sessions, and by the third month even my barber noticed the density difference.”
“Went in for sudden patchy hair loss and was diagnosed with alopecia areata the same visit. The patch has fully filled in after treatment.”

Frequently asked questions
How much does hair loss treatment cost in Bangalore?
At Calyx: PRP from ₹6,000, GFC from ₹8,000, and QR678 from ₹15,000 per session; hair transplant from ₹30,000 depending on grafts. Session count and total plan are confirmed at consultation after diagnosis.
What's the difference between GFC and PRP?
Both use growth factors from your own blood. GFC is the refined version — a purer, standardized concentrate without red cells and debris — giving more consistent results and a more comfortable session. For most patients we recommend GFC.
What is QR678?
A patented, peptide-based hair regrowth injection — plant-derived growth factors delivered directly to the scalp, no blood draw. Clinically studied for pattern hair loss, postpartum shedding, and telogen effluvium.
Do you offer exosome hair treatment?
We evaluated it — and chose not to offer it. Our medical director's review found that no exosome therapy currently holds approval from the US FDA or from Indian regulatory bodies for hair regrowth, so until that evidence and approval exist, exosomes stay off our menu. We offer PRP, GFC, and QR678, which have established clinical track records. If you've been researching exosomes, bring your questions to the consultation — we'll walk you through the comparison honestly.
When will I see results?
Hair works in cycles, so honest timelines: shedding usually reduces first (weeks 4–8), visible density changes from month 3, and full assessment at month 4–6. Anyone promising results in two weeks is selling, not treating.
Do oils or hair growth supplements work?
Oils and shampoos condition but don't regrow. Prescription treatments genuinely work when correctly prescribed and combined with treating the underlying cause — and if you're already on one, don't stop abruptly before your consultation, as sudden withdrawal can trigger shedding; your dermatologist will decide how it fits into the plan. Supplements help only when a deficiency exists. This is exactly what a diagnosis sorts out before you spend more.
Are online hair test kits worth it?
They're questionnaires with delivery charges. A dermatologist physically examines your scalp, checks the pattern, and orders real blood work when needed — that's a diagnosis, not an algorithm's guess.
Is hair loss treatment effective for women?
Yes — GFC, QR678, and prescription care all work for women. The bigger point: female hair loss frequently has a findable driver (iron, thyroid, PCOS, postpartum shifts), and treating that driver is half the result.
Is the result permanent?
Regrowth treatments revive follicles but pattern hair loss is a lifelong tendency, so a maintenance plan protects your gains. Transplanted hair, by contrast, is permanent. Your dermatologist gives you the honest long-term picture for your case.
Sudden bald patch — what should I do?
See a dermatologist promptly; it's most likely alopecia areata, which responds best to early treatment. Don't wait it out or apply home remedies.
Hair loss treatment or hair transplant — which do I need?
Thinning-but-alive follicles → regrowth treatment. Bald, follicle-less areas → transplant. Many patients need both: transplant for the bald zone, regrowth care to protect the rest. The assessment tells you where you are.
