Global Aesthetic Lasers and Energy Devices Market - 2022-2029

Market Overview

The global aesthetic lasers and energy devices market size was valued at US$ 5,242.50 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach US$ XX million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.40% during the forecast period (2022-2029).

Aesthetic lasers and energy devices are instruments and consumable products, which are used for several cosmetic procedures to treat skin disorders and improve physical appearance.

It involves processing the tissue using aesthetic lasers and energy devices and examining these tissues and cells under a microscope to examine morphological changes. These devices are used widely to enhance the physiology of wrinkled and aging skin. In addition, these devices are also used in different applications including, tattoo removal, skin rejuvenation, skin tightening, vascular lesions, and treatment of pigmented lesions.

Market Dynamics

The global aesthetic lasers and energy devices market growth driven by certain factors such by continuous technological advancements and approval for new aesthetic lasers and energy devices, growing demand for non-invasive skin treatment procedures, rising awareness amongst people about non-invasive surgeries with lesser side effects has increased the adoption of non-invasive aesthetic lasers and energy devices are among the key factors driving the market growth.

Continuous technological advancements and approval for new aesthetic lasers and energy devices, is expected to drive the global aesthetic lasers and energy devices market during the forecast period

For instance, in June 2020, Sciton, a leading manufacturer of medical and aesthetic lasers and light source technologies, launched the biggest new products in the history of the organization. This new product launch, on the much-anticipated platform mJOULE, includes a new fractional treatment, MOXI, and BBL HERO, the largest advancement in the history of pulsed light-based technology.

Also, in April 2020, WONTECH, a Korean laser, and energy-based medical aesthetic device company received U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510 (K) clearance for its hybrid Nd: YAG & Alexandrite laser device, SANDRO DUAL.

Growing demand for non-invasive skin treatment procedures is also driving the growth of the market. rising awareness amongst people about non-invasive surgeries with lesser side effects has increased the adoption of non-invasive aesthetic lasers and energy devices. Non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment with lasers based, Intense Pulsed Light-based, and LED equipment is designed to provide quick and faster recovery, hence, reduced hospital stay.

In addition, rising combination therapies for various aesthetic procedures are boosting the market growth. The laser-based aesthetic devices are used widely in various skin rejuvenation procedures. For instance, in tattoo removal aesthetic procedures, the use of single laser-based devices is sometimes challenging. The inks used in the lasers-based aesthetic lasers and energy devices get retained inside when performing multiple sessions for tattoo removal. In some cases, tattoo clearance becomes incomplete and takes subsequent sessions. Some adverse reactions, such as blistering and dyschromia, may happen during the treatment tenure. These challenges can be overcome by using the combined mode of tattoo removal treatment, which increases the demand for Aesthetic Lasers and Energy Devices. For instance, combining fractional lasers with Q-switched lasers has minimized the post-treatment side effects such as blistering.

High cost of products and stringent regulations for device approval hampering the growth of the aesthetic lasers and energy devices market

However, the high cost of products and stringent regulations for device approval are hampering the growth of the aesthetic lasers and energy devices market. Also, the market growth is likely to hinder by adverse side effects related to aesthetic treatment. These devices are associated with several side effects, as these medications work differently on different skin types and textures. Absorption of excess laser light can result in skin discoloration and blistering for a darker skin tone than lighter ones. Such post-treatment side effects create a block in opting for these treatments.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted the aesthetic lasers and energy devices market significantly. The medical aesthetic sector is facing several challenges in its manufacturing and supply chain, including delivering products to end-users. The market has observed a negative growth with a decline in the product demand from end-users, temporary closure of several end-user facilities (including beauty centers and spas), limited operations in most of the industries disrupted supply chain several other challenges faced in essential services due to the lockdown.
