Subjects took a nutraceutical supplement (Nutrafol Men or Women Capsules, Nutraceutical Wellness) daily for six months. Subjects were evaluated in the clinic at baseline and Weeks 12 and 24 with two self-assessments at Weeks 4 and 8. Study endpoints were standardized digital imaging and investigator rated assessments. Self-assessment questionnaires rated hair growth, hair satisfaction, and lifestyle factors.
Investigator ratings for baseline hair growth, coverage, density and volume were significant at Weeks 12 and 24 for all subjects. Significant improvement was seen in 83.7% of men and 79.5% of women at Week 24. Results were similar across ethnic subgroups with significant benefit at Weeks 12 and 24.
All subjects reported significant improvements in baseline hair appearance/quality, volume/fullness, scalp coverage, thickness and shedding at Weeks 4, 8, 12 and 24.
