Patent ID: 8318142

Claim:
A method of stimulating growth of a hair shaft from a hair follicle on a scalp of a human, the method comprising: supplying a hair growth system including; a vitamin complex ingestible by the human; wherein the vitamin complex is orally ingestible by the human once every 24 hours and includes: from about 750 micrograms to about 1,250 micrograms of vitamin B7; from about 8,000 international units to about 12,000 international units of vitamin A; from about 200 international units to about 600 international units of vitamin E; from about 600 micrograms to about 1,400 micrograms of folic acid; from about 300 milligrams to about 700 milligrams of vitamin C; from about 12 milligrams to about 35 milligrams of vitamin B1; from about 15 milligrams to about 35 milligrams of vitamin B2; from about 40 milligrams to about 60 milligrams of niacin; from about 15 milligrams to about 35 milligrams of vitamin B6; from about 75 micrograms to about 175 micrograms of vitamin B12; from about 75 milligrams to about 175 milligrams of pantothenic acid; from about 40 milligrams to about 60 milligrams of choline bitartrate; from about 40 milligrams to about 60 milligrams of inositol; and from about 15 milligrams to about 35 milligrams of para-aminobenzoic acid; a cleansing agent suitable for washing the scalp at least once every 48 hours and substantially free from each of sodium lauryl sulfate, palmitoyl ethanolamide, and dehydroepiandrosterone; and a plurality of laser diodes disposed in a fixture, wherein the fixture is configured for surrounding the scalp and applying electromagnetic radiation to the scalp; and applying electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength of from about 380 nm to about 1,000 nm to the scalp at a radiant flux of from about 600 nW to about 700 nW via the plurality of laser diodes to stimulate growth of the hair shaft from the hair follicle.
