Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a patterned hair loss occurring due to systemic androgen and genetic factors. It is the most common cause of hair loss in both genders. It is characterized by follicular miniaturization in a patterned hair loss occurring due to systemic androgen and genetic factors. The increasing incidence of androgenetic alopecia is expected to boost the market growth. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), in August 2015, global prevalence of severe androgenetic alopecia (AGA) was 15.33% overall and varied significantly by geographical region. The risk of having severe androgenetic alopecia (AGA) increased by 1.092 for per year for the 30 and 40 age group.

The global androgenetic alopecia treatment market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1,607.47 million in 2020 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period (2020-2027).

Androgenetic alopecia, a slow progressive form of alopecia, begins after the onset of puberty. Pattern or androgenetic alopecia is a genetically predetermined disorder due to excessive response to androgens that affects up to 50% of males and females globally, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). It is characterized by progressive loss of terminal hair of the scalp, in a characteristic distribution in both males and females. In males, hair loss is most prominent in the vertex and frontotemporal regions, while in women the frontal hairline is typically spared with diffuse apical hair loss noted as a wider anterior part of the hair.

Market Dynamics

Rising incidence of androgenetic alopecia is expected to drive the global androgenetic alopecia treatment market growth. According to the National Library of Medicine (NLM), a medical library which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), androgenetic alopecia affects approximately 50 million men and 30 million women in the U.S.

However, availability of alternative treatments is expected to hinder the market growth. For instance, hair restoration surgery such as scalp reduction surgeries, which is not used frequently but efficacy of hair transplantation is based on the principle of donor dominance.
