Tissue Expander Market: Overview

Tissue expanders are medical implants that are commonly utilized in cosmetic and trauma-related reconstructive operations. When these devices are implanted, they operate like a balloon that expands to stretch the tissue or skin covering the implant. Tissue expansion techniques including these implants are common in scalp reconstruction, breast reconstruction, and maxillofacial purposes.

COVID-19 Impact:

Globally the COVID-19 pandemic had a detrimental influence on a variety of businesses in 2020, including the temporary shutdown of breast tissue expander production operations. However, in 2021, as a result of COVID-19 immunization programs and essential safety procedures, demand for these surgical procedures was revived. Also, many hospitals, clinics, and specialty clinics retrieved their other services and operations to their full potential. As a result, these factors will propel the global tissue expander market forward over the projected period.

Tissue Expander Market: Growth Drivers

An upsurge in reconstruction surgeries across the world is expected to boost the market growth.

One of the primary reasons driving the growth of the tissue expander market is the rise in the number of reconstructive procedures performed throughout the world. The rise in the prevalence of breast cancer, as well as the increased usage of tissue expanders in reconstruction operations such as scalp reduction surgery and reconstruction of the face, arms, neck, and legs, are driving market expansion. Further, the rise in the number of trauma incidents and serious car accidents, as well as the rising popularity of reconstructive surgeries like skin implants and skin grafting treatments, all have a positive impact on the market growth. In addition, the tissue expander industry benefits from lifestyle changes, increased healthcare spending, and increased public awareness of health issues.

Tissue Expander Market: Restraints

High costs allied with reconstruction surgeries may hamper the market growth.

The high expenses linked with reconstruction procedures of breasts, face, and other body parts are among the major obstacles to the global tissue expander markets expansion. The high expense of breast reconstruction surgery in poor nations like South Africa is predicted to deter people from considering these procedures. The average breast reconstruction surgery costs between USD 3000 to USD 10,000. Furthermore, in developing countries, the average cost of a mastectomy is USD 4,500. Hormonal treatment, conventional chemotherapy, biological therapies, and radiation therapy are among the post-surgery procedures that cost between USD 5,500 to USD 30,000.

Tissue Expander Market: Opportunities

An increase in medical tourism is expected to support the market growth.

In Asia Pacific and Latin American nations such as China, India, Japan, Brazil, Columbia, Costa Rica, and others, health or medical tourism is the current trend. Breast reconstruction is one of the most common operations performed in plastic surgery in these nations. The demand for plastic surgery is predicted to increase in these regions as a result of reduced treatment costs and an increase in the number of procedures done. In the following projected years, this is expected to support demand for tissue expanders by 25 percent of present levels.

Tissue Expander Market: Challenges.

Prolonged tissue expander techniques and inadequate tissue expander supplies in underdeveloped economies pose a major challenge to market growth.

The use of a tissue expander necessitates a more involved procedure. To be effective, the method necessitates a careful selection of the patient, meticulous preparation, and faultless execution. The operation typically lasts 8 to 12 weeks and requires two surgical sittings. Any compromise in this technique can lead to negative results and complexity, some of which are slight and allow the operation to continue in order to achieve the anticipated aim, while others are severe and result in the procedure being abandoned without achieving the intended goal. Furthermore, tissue expanders are in short supply in poor countries. Due to all such factors, the global tissue expander market expansion is being hampered.
