Market Overview:
The scar treatment market involves products that are used to treat various
types of scars including hypertrophic scars, keloid scars, and acne scars.
These products include topical scar gels, creams, patches, laser and pulsed
light therapies, surface treatment, and injectables. Topical scar gels and
creams contain retinoids, silicone, vitamin E and C, and other components to
reduce appearance and thickness of scars. Laser and pulsed light therapies use
different wavelengths of light along with heat application to gently resurface
the top layer of the skin and improve the texture and color of scars.
Market Dynamics:
Increasing prevalence of road accidents, trauma injuries and surgical
interventions are major factors driving growth of the global scar treatment
market. According to the World Health Organization, over 1.35 million people
die each year as a result of road traffic crashes worldwide. Road traffic
injuries cause considerable physical and psychological suffering and have
enormous economic consequences. Majority of these road accidents cause cuts,
lacerations and other types of wounds leading to scarring. Hence, increasing
road accidents are expected to augment demand for scar treatments. Furthermore,
rapidly expanding skincare industry worldwide is fueling adoption of various
scar treatment products. However, high costs associated with products involving
laser and injectable therapies may restrain market growth.

- Growing awareness about scar treatment products and options is driving
their demand.

treatment, and surgery are benefiting the market growth.

treatment products.
