Strong Demand for Non-Invasive Cosmetic Procedures Drives the Global Botulinum Toxin Market, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.
San Jose, California (PRWEB) September 22, 2014 -- Follow us on LinkedIn – The primal desire to stay young has groomed and nurtured anti-aging products and technologies into a multi-billion dollar industry worldwide. Growing emphasis on appearance maintenance is benefitting the market for botulinum toxin. Botulinum Toxin is a neurotoxic protein obtained from the bacterium, Clostridium Botulinum, which arrests the release of acetylcholine, resulting in muscle relaxation. With cosmetic indications for botulinum toxin ranging from facial wrinkles to eyebrow furrows, the rapidly aging world population emerges as a strong demographic driver of growth. Increasing demand for minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures and growing affluence of consumers in emerging markets also augurs well for market growth. In addition, expanding medical application of botulinum toxin with recent product approvals for new neuromuscular indications is helping drive demand in the market.
Cosmetic botulinum toxin injection is essentially an elective treatment where demand is strongly dictated by socio-economic conditions and economic status of target demographic clusters. Ease of treatment, increased access to local therapy service providers, and availability of treatment options at affordable price points continue to push botulinum toxin into the mainstream aesthetic treatment market. Future growth in the therapeutic botulinum toxin market will be driven by the increasing focus on research and development of new treatment indications. Strengthening product pipeline and growing off-label use provide a strong long-term outlook for the market.
As stated by the new market research report on Botulinum Toxin, the United States represents the largest market worldwide. The country’s dominance is supported by the increasing number of approvals of Botox and other BTX products for use in new therapeutic and cosmetic indications. Asia-Pacific ranks as the fastest growing market with a projected CAGR of 14.9% over the analysis period. Primary growth drivers in the region include rapidly improving socio-economic conditions, strong economic growth and increasing aesthetic awareness among the populace.
