Global Extremity Tissue Expanders Market - 2022-2029

Market Overview

Extremity Tissue Expanders Market is expected to grow at a high CAGR of 6% during the forecasting period (2022 - 2029). Tissue expansion is a process used by reconstructive surgeons to help the body grow new skin, bone, or other tissues. It is commonly used in adults and children for skin reconstruction. Extremity Tissue expanders are applicable for a variety of reconstructive problems, ranging from the treatment of congenital defects to the secondary reconstruction of extensive burn scars.

Tissue expanders have a similar function as a balloon. Initially, tissue expanders are relatively flat and filled with saline or air saline through a valve. This process puts pressure and promotes the growth of new tissue. These are mainly used for soft tissue expansion in cases of soft tissue and skin tumor. The outer layer of the expander is made up of silicone, and it is filled with saline water or silicone depending upon the requirement of the procedure. Mostly, tissue expanders are round or rectangular shaped, with 50 ccs to 1000 cc volume capability. Differential expanders and anatomical expanders are the two types of expanders used primarily to repair specific defects.

Market Dynamics

The global extremity tissue expanders market growth driven by certain factors such as technological advancements, rising incidence of congenital deformity, and the increasing number of burn and traumatic injuries are among the key factors driving the market growth.

An increasing number of plastic surgeries is expected to drive the global extremity tissue expanders market during the forecast period

According to the recent data of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), in 2018 among the 15.9 million cosmetic minimally-invasive procedures performed in the United States, Botulinum Toxin Type A tops the list with 7.44 million procedures. Many advanced non-surgical and minimally invasive aesthetic procedures were developed at the beginning of the 21st century. The increasing quality of care improved professional services, and the availability of minimally invasive surgeries by highly qualified aesthetic surgeons have contributed to the growth of procedural volume.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgery, there were about 17.5 million minimally invasive cosmetic and surgical procedures performed in the U.S. in 2019. In North America, as per the National Clearinghouse of Plastic Surgery Procedural Statistics 2019, aesthetic breast surgeries witnessed an increase of 4.8% in the number of surgeries performed in 2019 as compared to the surgical procedures performed in 2016.

The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) estimated 256,800 breast reduction surgeries and around 100,614 breast lift surgeries among U.S. women in the year 2019. The American Cancer Society (ACS), projected that 278,361 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed among women in 2019 in the U.S. Breast implantation is considered a significant procedure in the field of cosmetic surgery. The trend towards cosmetic surgeries provides a positive scope for extremity tissue expanders. The number of practice surgeons in reconstructive and cosmetic surgeries is also rising with time which will also boost the growth of the extremity tissue expanders market.

Stringent regulatory approvals hampering the growth of the extremity tissue expanders market

However, stringent regulatory approvals and guidelines related to the adoption of the extremity tissue expander, along with high treatment costs are some of the factors hampering the growth of this market during the forecast period.

Segmentation Analysis

The breast reconstruction segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2029)

The breast reconstruction segment is expected to grow at the fastest growth rate over the forecast period. Breast Cancer is one of the major types of cancer in women, which requires mastectomy for the removal of cancerous tissues. According to the WHO, breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women, impacting 2.1 million women annually, and also causes the greatest number of cancer-related deaths among women. In 2018, it was estimated that about 627,000 women died from breast cancer, i.e. around 15% of all cancer deaths among women. While breast cancer rates are higher among women in more developed regions, rates are increasing in nearly every region globally. Extremity Tissue expanders are the basic model to fill the breast implant for the growing number of surgeries for breast cancer. Hence, the rising prevalence of breast cancer prevalence is one of the major factors contributing to the growth of the breast reconstruction segment.

Geographical Analysis

North America region holds the largest market share of the global extremity tissue expanders market

The North American region is dominating the global extremity tissue expanders market accounted for the largest market share in 2019, owing to the rising prevalence of sports-related injuries, accidental causes, and burn cases. As per the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, around two million people in the U.S. suffer from sports injuries annually.

In this region, the U.S. dominated the market in terms of revenue due to the presence of advanced healthcare infrastructure, increasing healthcare spending, and the widespread prevalence of various congenital disorders. As per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1 in every 33 babies born in the U.S. is affected by a birth defect. Besides, the rise in the number of reconstructive surgeries in the country has led to high demand for these products.

In North America, as per the 2019 statistics of International Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ISAPS), there were about 1,795,551 breast augmentation procedures all over the world in 2019 which was more than any other performed aesthetic surgery. According to the 2020 report of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation was one of the top five cosmetic surgical procedures performed in 2020 in the United States, the total number was 193,073 breast augmentation procedures in 2020. The increasing prevalence of breast cancer in North America will also complement the growth of the breast implant market in the region. As per the GLOBOCAN 2020 report, the new breast cancer cases in the United States, Canada, and Mexico were 253,465: 28,026; and 29,929, respectively in 2020.

In Canada, the market is projected to grow at a significant growth rate during the forecast period, owing to a rise in the number of road accidents and trauma injuries which increases the demand for these expanders in leg and arm reconstruction procedures.

Competitive Landscape

The global extremity tissue expanders market is moderately competitive with few major players and small players. Some of the key players which are contributing to the growth of the market include Allergan PLC, Mentor Worldwide LLC, Eurosurgical Ltd., GC Aesthetics PLC, Eurosilicone S.A.S., Laboratories Arion, Groupe Sebbin SAS, Guangzhou Wanhe Plastic Materials Co. Ltd., Koken Co. Ltd, Sientra, Inc., Koken Co. Ltd., among others. The major players are adopting several growth strategies such as product launches, acquisitions, and collaborations, which are contributing to the growth of the extremity tissue expanders market globally. For instance,

In June 2020, Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company has initiated a new digital campaign to improve device tracking and further identify and reach breast implant patients who have, or have had, BIO CELL breast implants and/or tissue expanders to inform them of the risk of BIA-ALCL. Since July 2019 when the BIO CELL recall was announced, robust efforts were made to reach patients, however, the Company is still seeking to directly contact all U.S. BIO CELL patients that have not yet been notified. This is due to incomplete device tracking data for approximately 52,000 BIO CELL breast implant units.

In November 2016, Sientra, Inc., a medical aesthetics company, has acquired the complete portfolio of premium, differentiated tissue expanders from industry pioneer Specialty Surgical Products, Inc. (SSP). With this acquisition, Sientra adds to its product offering the AlloX2 and Dermaspan lines of breast tissue expanders, in addition to the Softspan line of extremity expanders. In 2019, Illumina acquired Pacific Biosciences, one of the leading providers of sequencing systems. This helped Illumina strengthen its sequencing product portfolio.
