Aesthetic Medical Devices Market Drivers and Opportunities

Surge in Adoption of Minimally Invasive and Noninvasive Aesthetic Procedures to Favor Market

Minimally invasive procedures offer patients various benefits, including reduced downtime, lesser scarring, lower risks, limited stress, better patient satisfaction, and quicker recovery times compared to traditional invasive surgeries. This shift toward minimally invasive approaches is driven by several factors, such as technological advancements in aesthetic devices, increasing patient preference for nonsurgical options, and advancements in medical research and techniques. Moreover, the rise of minimally invasive procedures aligns with a broader societal shift toward wellness, natural-looking enhancements, and personalized treatment approaches. Patients seeking aesthetic treatments are often drawn to minimally invasive options that provide subtle enhancements and visible results without the need for extensive surgical interventions. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 26.2 million surgical and minimally invasive cosmetic procedures were performed in the US in 2022. Also, cosmetic surgery surgeries have increased by 19% compared to 2019. Thus, the surge in the adoption of minimally invasive and noninvasive aesthetic procedures drives the growth of the aesthetic medical market.

Rising Spending on Medical Procedures in Developing Countries

Rapid urbanization, increasing investments by healthcare providers in improving infrastructure, growing awareness among the population, and the availability of a wide range of advanced products and technologies in developing economies have contributed to making them the centers of medical tourism. In Saudi Arabia, Russia, Brazil, India, and South Africa, healthcare systems focus on introducing various advanced medical aesthetic technologies into their service portfolios. Patients from developed regions travel to emerging countries for various medical aesthetic procedures. Health facilities, medical spas, and wellness centers increasingly offer a comprehensive range of inexpensive but high-quality medical aesthetic procedures. The spending on cosmetic and rejuvenation procedures to improve aesthetics is rapidly increasing among the global population. In developing countries, there is rising awareness about minimally invasive treatments and acceptance of aesthetic procedures in the population, growing need for an ideal physical appearance, increasing incidence of skin diseases, growing geriatric population, and rising availability and acceptance of technologically advanced medical devices. Also, surging healthcare spending in developing economies in Asia Pacific enables healthcare professionals to adopt advanced technologies for performing cosmetic procedures. Thus, rising spending on medical procedures in developing countries is expected to create growth opportunities for the aesthetic medical devices market during the forecast period.
