Aesthetics Market Size

ID: MRFR//2258-CR | 127 Pages | Author: Rahul Gotadki| February 2021

The realm of medical aesthetics encompasses specialized procedures designed to enhance cosmetic appearance by addressing a variety of conditions, ranging from wrinkles and scars to cellulite, unwanted hair, and moles. Notably, there is a discernible shift in the current trend towards the utilization of non-invasive procedures for treating cosmetic imperfections. The global medical aesthetics market is experiencing significant growth, propelled by several key factors that collectively contribute to the evolving landscape of aesthetic treatments.

One of the primary drivers of the escalating demand for medical aesthetics is the increasing prevalence of obesity and a growing geriatric population worldwide. As societies grapple with lifestyle changes and an aging demographic, there is a heightened emphasis on seeking aesthetic solutions to address the visible effects of aging and lifestyle-related concerns. The desire for a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance has driven individuals towards medical aesthetic procedures that can subtly enhance and restore their natural features.

The surge in demand for aesthetic and cosmetic procedures is another pivotal factor fueling the growth of the global medical aesthetics market. Aesthetic consciousness has become ingrained in contemporary culture, transcending age and gender boundaries. Individuals are increasingly opting for procedures that go beyond traditional skincare routines to achieve specific cosmetic goals. This shift in consumer behavior has created a burgeoning market for a diverse range of medical aesthetic interventions.

The escalating expenditure on cosmetic surgeries is indicative of the growing willingness of consumers to invest in enhancing their physical appearance. Advances in technology within the aesthetic industry have played a crucial role in making these procedures more accessible, effective, and with reduced downtime. Cutting-edge technologies and innovative techniques have paved the way for a broader spectrum of aesthetic treatments, catering to a diverse array of individual needs.

The global medical tourism industry also contributes significantly to the growth of the medical aesthetics market. Patients are increasingly seeking aesthetic procedures in countries renowned for their expertise and cost-effectiveness in the field. This trend is particularly notable in emerging economies where advanced medical facilities offer competitive services and attract a substantial influx of medical tourists seeking cosmetic enhancements.

While the future of the medical aesthetics market appears promising, certain challenges may temper its growth trajectory. High procedural costs pose a notable barrier, limiting access for some individuals who may be interested in aesthetic treatments. The expense associated with these procedures can be prohibitive for a segment of the population, creating a potential hurdle for market expansion.

Furthermore, there is a shortage of trained and experienced dermatologists and plastic surgeons, particularly in regions with a burgeoning demand for aesthetic procedures. The expertise required to perform these interventions necessitates specialized training, and addressing the shortage of skilled professionals is crucial for sustaining the growth of the medical aesthetics market.

The concern over potential side effects associated with aesthetic procedures is another factor that may impede market growth in the forecast period. While technological advancements have made procedures safer, the perception of risk and potential adverse outcomes may deter some individuals from pursuing aesthetic treatments.

The Global Aesthetics Market Size was valued at USD 75.46 Billion in 2023 and is projected to grow from USD 88.45 Billion in 2024 to USD 232.49 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.34% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

As per the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), India is rated among the top 5 countries serving non-surgical procedures globally, which highlights the increased growth prospects for aesthetic medicine manufacturers in the country.


Global Aesthetics Market Trends



  • Employment of new-age growth strategies by key players


The global aesthetics market is driven by new-age trends, which include the introduction and employment of new growth-driven strategies. Major key players in the global market are empowering their businesses by adopting different growth strategies, including capacity expansion, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, geographical expansion, new product launches, and innovative visual aesthetics products to remain competitive in the marketplace, which is anticipated to positively impact the market's growth.


With the growing popularity of minimally invasive and non-invasive aesthetic beauty treatment, the growing popularity of anti-aging treatment procedures among geriatric patients, the accessibility of technologically developed and user-friendly products, and the growing demand for aesthetic treatment among men, the market for medical aesthetics has seen a commendable growth. With this, the market's growth is being held back by the clinical risks and consequences associated with body contouring procedures and the growing accessibility and popularity of alternative beauty and cosmetic products.


In June 2020, Allergan Aesthetics, a subordinate of AbbVie Inc. a leader in dermatology from the United States, obtained the approval from FDA to indicate the Chin region in adults aged 21 and above. Apart from this, FDA has also authorized Jeuveau which is similar to Botox, but available at a much lower price. Such and more growth strategies employed by the companies operating in the said domain help the global market grow rapidly to earn a substantial market share. 


Aesthetics Market Segment Insights


Aesthetics Procedure Insights


The market segments of aesthetics, based on procedure, have been divided into invasive procedures (breast augmentation, liposuction, nose reshaping, eyelid surgery, tummy tuck) and non-invasive procedures (botox injections, soft tissue fillers, chemical peel, laser hair removal, microdermabrasion). The non-invasive procedures category held a prominent share in 2021. Less pain, instant results, and lower prices are some of the factors that have enhanced the demand for non-invasive aesthetic treatment. However, invasive is the fastest-growing category due to the growing focus of individuals on physical appearance through skin rejuvenation.


Aesthetics Gender Insights


The segmentation of this market, based on gender, is divided into two categories male and female. The female category had a major share in 2021 due to the growing female working population. Also, the female group has signs of ageing, such as forehead lines, frown lines and crow's feet. However, the male category in the said segmentation is the fastest growing category as it allows to reduce the appearance of scarring skin which fuels this market growth during the forecast period.


Aesthetics End-User Insights


Based on the end-user segmentation, the global aesthetics market is segmented into clinics, hospitals, & medical spas, beauty centres, and home care. In 2021, the clinics, hospitals, and medical spas category held a prominent market share. Market growth in this category can be related to the growing awareness about the psychology of aesthetics along with several aesthetic procedures and their benefits, growing preference for minimally invasive cosmetic surgeries, and an increase in the number of body dysmorphia clinics. However, the home care segment is the fastest growing segment due to the increased adoption of home-use aesthetic devices.


Aesthetics Regional Insights


The global market is studied prominently across and divided into four regions, viz., North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World. North America, among all the other regions, has the major market share, while Asia-Pacific is estimated to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Advanced healthcare infrastructure, the adoption of cosmetic procedures, the growing prevalence of skin disorders, and the existence of board-certified and experienced cosmetic surgeons in North America are some of the major characteristics driving the market growth in this region. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) compared the data from 2000 to 2018 and observed the growth rates of cosmetic surgery procedures.
