No: Biotin has been shown to be useless. No vitamins or anything else will make nails grow faster. You may have hair and nail changes because of recent surgery. There may be hormone changes which your drs can address. See a dermatologist if the changes are significant. Eat vegetables, fruits, etc. There is a huge baggage of silly nonsense on this subject. Don't be a sucker.
