Microneedling is a minimally invasive therapy that involves superficial micro puncturing of the epidermis using a dermapen or a roller embedded with thin, tiny metal or silicon needles, according to the American Academy of Dermatology Association. The technique's main goal is to create peripheral stress on the skin in order to activate the skin's repair systems and increase underlying collagen production.
Scalp microneedling may also aid in the absorption of hair loss treatment products like minoxidil (Rogaine), topical steroids, and platelet-rich plasma. The needles used can range in length from less than 1 millimeter to a few millimeters. They are all contained in a handheld device, also called a roller, the device is rolled along the treatment area, creating small injuries. When rolled over the scalp or hairline, it creates tiny punctures that can make it easier for the medicinal qualities of topical and oils to reach the hair follicles. It is speculated that microneedling may provoke the release of factors that promote hair growth or perhaps directly stimulate hair growth as a result of the small injury caused.
Market Dynamics
The increasing prevalence of malnutrition condition is expected to drive the growth of global scalp microneedling market over the forecast period, as lack of proper nutrition may result in hair loss problems, which is expected to drive the demand for scalp microneedling devices for its treatment. For instance, according to the fact sheet provided by World Health Organization, in June 2021, Malnutrition, in all its forms, includes under nutrition (wasting, stunting, and underweight), inadequate vitamins or minerals, overweight, obesity, and resulting diet-related non-communicable diseases. According to the same source, globally in 2020, 149 million children under 5 were estimated to be stunted (too short for age), 45 million were estimated to be wasted (too thin for height), and 38.9 million were overweight or obese.
