To fabricate the hair growth stimulating dressing, it is firstly took mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with lanthanide elements and at least one polymer matrix as raw materials to fabricate a plurality of biological fibers; and subsequently, the biological fibers are weaved to a biological textile. Particularly, the hair growth stimulating dressing can indeed show a promotion effect of hair growth on the heads of BALB/c nude mice after being covered onto the head of the nude mice. Therefore, compared to the fact that the commercial hair growth promoting products only just can show apparent hair growing effect on user's head after being continuously used for at least 4 months, this hair growth stimulating dressing only takes 7 days to exhibit positive hair growing effect on user's head. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A hair growth stimulating dressing, comprising a biological textile weaved by a plurality of biological fibers, wherein each of the plurality of biological fibers comprises: a polymer sheath; and a plurality of mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with lanthanide elements, being doped in or enclosed by the polymer sheath. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 1, further comprising: a substrate for supporting the biological textile; and an adhesive layer, being formed on the biological textile. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 1, wherein the manufacturing material of the polymer sheath is selected from the group consisting of compound of gelatin and trifluoroethanol (TFE), compound of gelatin, TFE and polycaprolactone (PCL), compound of gelatin, TFE and polylactide (PLA), polyester, polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polyamide (PA). ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 2, wherein the substrate is provided with a glue layer thereon. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 2, wherein there are a plurality of air holes formed on the substrate. ### Claim 6 A hair growth stimulating dressing, comprising a biological textile weaved by a plurality of biological fibers and a plurality of fibers, wherein each of the plurality of biological fibers comprises: a polymer sheath; and a plurality of mesoporous silica nanoparticles doped with lanthanide elements, being doped in or enclosed by the polymer sheath. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 6, further comprising: a substrate for supporting the biological textile; and an adhesive layer, being formed on the biological textile. ### Claim 8 (depends on 6) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 6, wherein the manufacturing material of the polymer sheath is selected from the group consisting of compound of gelatin and trifluoroethanol (TFE), compound of gelatin, TFE and polycaprolactone (PCL), compound of gelatin, TFE and polylactide (PLA), polyester, polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polyamide (PA). ### Claim 9 (depends on 6) The hair growth stimulating dressing of claim 6, wherein the manufacturing material of the sheath is selected from the group consisting of compound of gelatin and trifluoroethanol (TFE), compound of gelatin, TFE and polycaprolactone (PCL), compound of gelatin, TFE and polylactide (PLA), polyester, polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and polyamide (PA).
