Dermatology Devices – A Cure for Anti-Aging?

The awareness of skin-related disorders and the focus on esthetics by consumers have triggered the development of dermatology devices. These devices hold the potential to restore the skin to its unblemished state.

Dermatology Devices

Dermatology devices and its related accessories can aid dermatologists in treating skin disorders. These devices include lasers, radiofrequency (RF) devices, cellulite-reducing devices, microdermabrasion devices, and others. The application of these devices has expanded to medical imaging, liposuction, and radiation therapy to treat cancer.

Latest Developments

At-home skincare devices are the latest fancy of consumers obsessed with esthetics. Blue LEDs (light-emitting diode) possess the capacity to thwart acne-causing bacteria, while red LEDs can alleviate inflammation. Microdermabrasion devices like the Silk’n ReVit Diamond Microdermabrasion System provide the choice of effective skin treatment which can be enjoyed from the confines of consumer homes. 

RenovaCare, a US company, has developed SkinGun, a device which utilizes stem cells to treat burns. This can act as a viable alternative to skin grafts, which require months to heal. DermaLumics, a Spanish company, has managed to create a non-invasive skin imaging solution to detect tumors or unnatural growth. This tool can diagnose the patient’s data in real-time, giving way to faster results and efficiency.

Market Outlook

The worldwide dermatology devices market is projected to touch nearly USD 26 billion by 2025, according to Grand View Research, Inc. Demand for esthetic-driven devices are primarily driving the market. Rising prevalence of skin and hair disorders are also expected to contribute to market growth over the forecast period (2014 - 2025).

Dermatology treatment and diagnostic devices are two major products of the market. The latter is expected to expand at a profitable CAGR over the forecast period. Acne, psoriasis, and tattoo removal application is anticipated to grow lucratively over the same period. North America had led the global market in 2015 due to high prevalence of obesity and awareness of esthetics. Key market players are Avita Medical Ltd.; Cynosure, Inc.; GE Healthcare; and Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc.
