Industry Insights, Market Size, CAGR, High-Level Analysis: Aesthetic Medicine Market


The global aesthetic medicine market size was valued at USD 52.5 billion in 2018 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 8.9% over the forecast period. Innovation in aesthetic devices in the past decade has led to growth in demand for aesthetic treatments. The introduction of technically advanced products, such as non-invasive body contouring systems using controlled cooling technology is projected to create growth opportunities for the market in near future.

Moreover, the rise in disposable income has boosted the demand for cosmetic surgeries, thereby accelerating market growth. Rising population prone to experiencing signs of aging coupled with rising consciousness about physical appearance is anticipated to further drive the demand for aesthetic medicine. The trend of combination treatments in aesthetics is on a rise. Aesthetics is now being combined with lasers and radiofrequency to achieve smoother and sustained results.

Growth in population between the ages 30 and 65 years is anticipated to boot the number of target consumers with signs of aging, such as wrinkles, lack of skin elasticity and dark spots. For instance, according to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) World Factbook, around 39.9% of the total German population was aged between 25 to 54 years and around 15.0% of the population was aged between 55 to 65 years in 2018. This factor is anticipated to drive the demand for aesthetic medicine from the country in the forthcoming years.

Moreover, the need for improved aesthetics in the rapidly rising working-class population is likely to boost the usage of aesthetic medicine over the forecast period. According to Statista, U.S. alone had a working population of 155.76 million in 2018. With improving employment rates especially in the emerging markets, the market is anticipated to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period. However, the side effects associated with aesthetic procedures are likely to continue negatively impacting the consumer preference index.
