Tissue Expanders Market Size Worth $1.5 Billion By 2025 | CAGR: 5.5%

The global TissueExpanders Market size is anticipated to reach USD 1.5 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. This growth can be attributed to increase in the number of reconstruction surgeries.

Growing concern among people regarding their physical appearance has led to a rapid growth of the tissue expanders market. In the U.S., over 102,200 breast reconstruction procedures were performed in 2014, which showcase a 7% rise from the previous year, as estimated by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. In addition, cleft lip surgeries that are prevalent among the pediatric population also require tissue expanders. Thus, rise in the number of these surgeries has led to a huge growth of this market.

According to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, the percentage of women undergoing mastectomy procedures has increased by 36% from 2005 to 2013. Thus, growing number of mastectomies is anticipated to drive the demand for tissue expanders. In addition, burns and road accidents result in severe scars or deformities, which most often require surgical treatment. Hence, there is a steep rise in the number of reconstructive surgeries that make use of tissue expanders for such severe scars or deformities, which aids in market growth.

Further Key Findings From the Study Suggest:

• In 2016, breast reconstruction held the largest market share owing to large number of breast reconstruction surgeries performed
• Forehead skin and scalp reconstruction is anticipated to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period due to increase in number of cicatricial alopecia cases
