U.S. Post Surgical Scar Treatment Market
Any burn, injury, or trauma such as surgeries can cause a scar on the skin. Scarring is a natural healing process, which occurs after an injury. Its appearance and treatment depend on multiple factors such as the depth and size of the wound or the cut. It also depend upon the location of the wound, age, sex, and genes. There are various types of scars such as keloid scars, contracture scars, acne scars, and hypertrophic scars. Keloid scars are formed due to an over-aggressive healing process. They usually extend beyond their original location of the injury. Treatment of keloid scars include surgery, steroid injections, silicone sheets, and others. Hypertrophic scars are raised red scars and treatment of these scars include injection of steroids or silicone sheets.
Market Dynamics
Market players are engaged in inorganic growth activities such as acquisitions, and this is expected to drive growth of the U.S. post-surgical scar treatment market, over the forecast period. For instance, in April 2019, Merz, a company involved in aesthetics and neurotoxins, and Laboratoire HRA Pharma SAS, an innovative U.S. consumer healthcare company, entered into an agreement to acquire the asset purchase agreement, according to which HRA Pharma will acquire the U.S. rights to the Mederma brand of Merz, which includes products across the scar care, stretch marks, and skincare categories.
Moreover, in October 2019, 3M, a multinational conglomerate corporation operating in the fields of industry, worker safety, health care, and consumer goods, completed the acquisition of Acelity, Inc., a medical device company, to expand its surgical applications business, which include advanced wound care and specialty surgical applications marketed under the KCI brand (PROMOGRAN) in the developed economies such as the U.S.
