Posted by Statzy Market Research on April 27th, 2021

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has affected the hair restoration business to a larger extent owing to the lack of preference for non-emergent surgical procedures among the population. Various regulatory bodies across the world have also recommended the surgeons to avoid all kinds of non-emergent surgical procedures due to the high risk of infection. Hence, considering the unprecedented impact of COVID-19 on the hair restoration market, it is evident that the market will experience a slightly negative impact in the foreseeable future.

The key factors propelling the growth of the hair restoration market are the increasing popularity of hair transplants and the increasing prevalence of various forms of dermatological disorders leading to hair loss. As per the report published by Hair Society reports, over 35 million men and 21 million women suffer from alopecia or hair loss worldwide. Of these, over 650,000 of them undergo hair transplants as the most effective treatment option annually. This increase in the prevalence of hair loss among the population is the major reason giving rise to hair transplantation surgery. The International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) estimated that 735,312 hair restorations procedures were performed worldwide in 2019. This number represented an overall increase of 16 % from 2016, it that year, 635,189 hair transplantation procedures was tallied globally. The data suggested that larrge number of people are going for hair restoration procedures across the world, resulting in the growth of the hair restoration market.

In addition, technological advancements in hair transplant devices are also increasing the success rate of these procedures and boosting the demand for these procedures. For instance, in March 2018, Restoration Robotics, Inc. received the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance to expand the ARTAS technology to include implantation. The introduction of these novel technology has reduced maximum errors and increased the success rate of the treatment, and thereby driving the market growth. However, cost constraints and high post-surgery care along with adverse side effects are the factors that can hamper the market growth.
