Cosmetic industry has been a success story over the last few years compared to other consumer products. In cosmetic industry, skin replacement market is gaining remarkable share worldwide. The trend is attributed primarily to burn injuries and technological adoption to treat various skin-related issues. Burnt skin induces the growth of microbes and bacteria that ultimately results in rapid loss of body fluids. Thus, to protect the skin traditionally skin grafts from the donors or cadavers were used. However, uptake of these substitutes was impeded due to probability of graft rejection and unavailability of large skin patch. Hence, to resolve the problem synthetic skin substitutes came into picture to treat deep skin wounds which promotes regeneration of artificial skin. These technological advancements have led to enhanced survival of burned patients and in the past years several skin replacement products have been used for the treatment of chronic wounds. Skin replacement market is likely to grow at a relatively moderate pace in-between 2016 to 2020 before taking upward trend to 2023. The average sales is expected to go above 1.5X between 2016 and 2023.

Digital disruption along with increasing penetration of 3D printing technology is expected to drive the skin replacement market

Burn injuries have increased over the last few years. According to independent estimates, over 1.5 million population in the U.S. suffers from burn related skin loss each year. Similarly, in the United Kingdom approximately 175,000 report to emergency departments for the burn injuries and of these approximately 13,000 require hospital admissions. As a result, skin replacement product is expected to gain traction with innovative products being launched in the market including artificial skin. The industry will be further driven by increasing 3D printing technology in healthcare. Companies such as L’Oreal and Proctor & Gamble leverages 3D printing technology to develop artificial skin.

Key developments

Increasing number of approvals for novel skin treatment procedures is expected to facilitate growth of the global skin replacement market over the forecast period. For instance, in September 2018, the U.S. FDA granted premarket approval for Recell (Avita), which is a spray-on treatment for burns in patients older than 18 years.

Moreover, increasing focus on research and development activities by key players is projected to drive the market growth in the future. For instance, in October 2018, Platelet BioGenesis announced that they are in the process of developing a device that imitates the conditions under which human platelets are generated, for patients recovering from injuries, surgery, or treatments like chemotherapy that can lead to an extremely low platelet count.

Moreover, in January 2019, Proctor & Gamble launched Opté, which is a tool aimed at covering skin conditions such as hyperpigmentation, and age spots by simply gliding the device over the skin’s surface. Such product innovations are likely to benefit growth of the skin replacement market.
