KEY MARKET INSIGHTS

Play Audio Listen to Audio Version

The Europe facial injectable market size was valued at USD 1.98 billion in 2022. The market is projected to grow from USD 2.08 billion in 2023 to USD 3.14 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period.


Facial injectable is a substance injected under the skin to smoothen wrinkles and make them less noticeable. There have been changes in attitudes toward cosmetic surgeries as many individuals are opting to enhance their looks. This is owing to a strong increase in disposable income and rising awareness regarding aesthetic beauty across Europe. Several factors are responsible for the increase in the adoption of these products due to the considerable safety that they offer and the little to no treatment and recovery time required in undertaking these minimally invasive procedures. These products include cosmetic neurotoxins, such as botulinum toxin and dermal fillers, including hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite.


Moreover, the larger implementation of these products has led prominent companies in this market to increase their investments in various R&D activities for the development and introduction of novel facial injectable products. For instance, in June 2021, Galderma announced that its product Alluzience completed its European decentralized procedure, which resulted in a positive decision for the company’s first ready-to-use neuromodulator, a wrinkle relaxing injection, in Europe. Such developments by key companies are predicted to increase the procedural volume and ultimately boost the Europe facial injectable market growth during the forecast period.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Termination of Elective Processes due to COVID-19 Led to Decline in Product Sales


Lockdowns imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic caused a huge decline in the number of non-essential healthcare services, such as cosmetic procedures, to encourage safety concerns and reduce the risk of infection across the region. According to an article by Derma Institute, in 2021, more than 81.0% of the aesthetic businesses in the U.K. had to close their clinics during the pandemic, while 67.0% of revenues declined to reduce the risk of infection and the burden on the healthcare system. Such closures negatively influenced the sales of these products in the Europe market due to substantial reduction in procedural volumes.


The pandemic adversely impacted various companies’ supply chains, end-user demand for these products, and other commercialization activities. Key players in the market reported a decline in revenues from dermal fillers products in FY2020 as compared to the financial year of 2019. For example, in 2020, Allergan Aesthetics (AbbVie, Inc.), a strong player in the Europe market, recorded a decrease of 39.0% in the international market as compared to 2019 for the Juvederm Collection due to the closure of treatment centers and cancellation of elective aesthetic procedures.


However, various specialty clinics and dermatological centers witnessed a 70.0% increase in the requests for virtual consultations during the lockdown. Therefore, a strong market growth in FY2021 was observed as restrictions were eased and the postponed procedures were performed due to the strong increase in pent-up demand. Furthermore, the surge in COVID-19 vaccinations is expected to sustain the market growth for the foreseeable future.


LATEST TRENDS


Rising Acceptance of Facial Injectable among Males to Drive Market Growth Prospects 


One of the prevailing market trends in the Europe market is that a surging percentage of the male demographic has demonstrated an interest in the adoption of these aesthetic products. There has been a boost in terms of awareness of age among men that can deteriorate their facial appearances, which has led to an increase in demand for these cosmetic procedures. According to an article published by the Guardian in 2021, plastic surgeons in the U.K. reported that the demand for injectable cosmetic procedures, such as botulinum toxin, by the male demographic increased by 70.0%.


Furthermore, a robust proportion of the younger segment of the male demographic is opting for these products as aging leads to the formation of wrinkles, which may be significantly delayed by adding volume and plumping up the skin. The usage of appropriate aesthetic products will decrease the likelihood of the development of new lines, creases, and folds or may also restore the plumpness of the lips. Hence, such trends are expected to significantly contribute to the growth of this market in Europe during the forecast period.

DRIVING FACTORS


Increase in Demand for Aesthetic Cosmetic Operations to Fuel Market Growth in Europe


In Europe, the demand for cosmetic surgeries and minimally invasive or non-invasive cosmetic procedures, such as botulinum toxin and dermal filler injections, has increased tremendously over the past decade. Cosmetic procedures, which are invasive, often require patients to take certain additional days for recuperation from the surgical procedure. Hence, an increasing number of individuals are opting for minimally invasive procedures, which are painless and easier.


Moreover, the surge in demand for this type of cosmetic procedure has also led to a significant impact on the suppliers of dermatological preparations and other non-invasive technologies. They have engaged in new product launches to meet the demand for aesthetic procedures with improved patient outcomes. According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) 2021 data, nonsurgical procedures performed in certain European countries were 731,883 in Germany, 585,468 in Italy, 231,606 in Spain, and 318,903 in Greece. Such sturdy developments are anticipated to strengthen the market growth.


Increasing Number of Practitioners Administering Facial Injectable to Drive Market Growth


In terms of procedural volumes, dermal filler ranks second amongst the top five nonsurgical cosmetic procedures behind botulinum toxin injections. An increasing number of dermal filler procedures due to the surging popularity of dermal fillers to address the signs of aging, augmentation, and correction of lips and chin drives the market growth.


The market has the presence of more than 100 products of various material types, and dermal fillers are currently being used by several practitioners other than dermatologists and plastic surgeons. Cosmetic interventions are witnessing strong growth in terms of facial injectable procedures that can be performed by a number of healthcare practitioners such as General Practitioners (GP), consultant dermatologists, or plastic surgeons. According to data published by the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) in 2021, Germany ranks second amongst the top 10 countries in the number of injectable procedures performed. Furthermore, Germany ranked 10th among the top 30 countries in the number of plastic surgeons. The increasing number of physicians and practitioners offering these procedures in European countries would boost the market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost and Comparative Side Effects of Facial Injectable to Hinder Market Growth 


Aesthetic procedures offer various benefits; however, there are certain limiting factors that restrict the market growth over the forecast period. One of the critical factors includes the high costs associated with these products, which vary based on the type of procedure coupled with the expertise and qualifications of the person performing the treatment and the time & effort required to carry out the procedure or treatment. For instance, as per Med Beauty, hyaluronic acid fillers treatment in the U.K. with products, such as the Juvederm Collection of hyaluronic acid derma, ranges from USD 137.5 to USD 206.9, and the cost of a dermal filler treatment depends on the volume of dermal filler required. Furthermore, the requirement of repeated procedures of dermal fillers and botulinum toxin for the continued aesthetic effects is expected to contribute to the high costs of these procedures. This factor is anticipated to hinder the Europe market growth over the forecast period.


Another critical factor is the relative side effects caused by the administration of dermal fillers injections, which are rare but serious adverse reactions, such as scarring, blurred vision, partial vision loss, and blindness, can occur if the facial injectable is inadvertently injected into a blood vessel. Such factors lead to the decline in market growth.


SEGMENTATION


By Type Analysis


Hyaluronic Acid Segment to Lead due to Wider Benefits Offered 


Based on type, the market is segmented into botulinum toxin, collagen, hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, polylactic acid, Polymethyl-Methacrylate Microspheres (PMMA), fat injection, and others.


The hyaluronic acid segment dominated the market in 2022. The increase in demand for hyaluronic acid-based products is primarily driven by the safety and comparative longevity of these products. Furthermore, the presence of key companies offering hyaluronic acid facial injectable in Europe, such as Allergan Aesthetics (AbbVie, Inc.), is expected to drive the segment’s growth over the forecast period.


The second largest segment in 2022 was botulinum toxin, which was attributable to its significant procedural volume and the existence of key products such as Dysport from Galderma.


Calcium hydroxylapatite segment accounted for the third-largest market share in the European market in 2022.  The growth was mainly attributed to the rising awareness about self-appearance and cosmetic procedures. Moreover, pharmaceutical companies are focused on R&D activities in dermal fillers, thereby strengthening the segmental growth in the near future.


The polylactic acid segment is likely to grow with a significant CAGR over the forecast period due to the latest advancements such as the re-launch of Sculptra in Europe. Robust demand for fat filler procedures across the region is predicted to contribute to the segment’s growth prospects during the forecast period.

By Application Analysis


Wrinkle Reduction Dominated the Market Share owing to New Product Launches for Different Requirements of Patients


In terms of application, the market is classified into wrinkle reduction, facelift, acne scar treatment, lipoatrophy treatment, lip enhancement, and others.


The wrinkle reduction segment dominated the market in 2022 and is expected to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment’s growth is accredited to the strong presence of prominent companies that address the needs of patients and increase awareness with respect to the effectiveness of these products for lines and wrinkles reduction.


The lip enhancement segment held the second-largest proportion of the Europe facial injectable market share in 2022 and is expected to grow at a strong rate as the segment has a huge potential for growth in the Europe market. Some of the reasons for the segment’s growth include the robust demand for procedures, such as lip augmentation, which is attracting top companies to invest in product launches.


The third leading segment is projected to be the facelift segment, and its growth is attributed to the increase in beauty consciousness among women and the demand for products that rejuvenate damaged facial volume.


Other major application areas of the market are acne blemish treatment and lipoatrophy treatment. For the treatment of acne scars, Bellafill is the only U.S. FDA-approved dermal filler for this indication.


By End-user Analysis


Dermatology and Cosmetic Clinics Segment to Exhibit Highest CAGR during 2023-2030 owing to Rising Prevalence of Aesthetic Problems


By end-user, the market is divided into hospitals & ambulatory surgery centers, dermatology and cosmetics clinics, and others.


The dermatology and cosmetic clinics segment generated the highest revenue, and is expected to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Most of these procedures are carried out in dermatology and cosmetic clinics, and the rising prevalence of aesthetic problems, such as wrinkles and loss of facial volume, is expected to favor the expansion of the segment.


The hospitals & ambulatory centers segment is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. For example, various hospitals & ambulatory surgery centers in the U.K. offer these procedures to address a number of skin concerns, including the common signs of aging around the forehead and eyes such as frown lines, laughter lines, and crow’s feet.


REGIONAL INSIGHTS



Strong Procedural Volume in Germany to Lead to its Dominance


In terms of country/sub-region, the Europe market is studied across Germany, the Netherlands, the U.K., France, Italy, Belgium, Spain, Scandinavia, Greece, and the rest of Europe.


Germany dominated the European market share and was valued at USD 0.48 billion in 2022. Improved healthcare facilities, strong procedural volume, and a highly aware population are the key factors for the expansion of the market in this country. For instance, as per the ISAPS 2021 statistical data, the total number of non-surgical procedures performed involving injectables in Germany was 570,586.


France is expected to represent the second-highest market share in Europe during 2023-2030. The market growth in France is likely to be propelled by the consistent increase in the number of injectable facial procedures, fresh product unveilings, strategic collaborations between major players, and active government support that are projected to further increase the demand for these products in the country.


Italy held the third-largest market share in 2022 and is expected to reach a substantial market value during the forecast period, owing to increase in the number of injectable procedures across the country. For example, as per the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), in 2020, an estimated 240,264 procedures involving hyaluronic acid dermal fillers were conducted, whereas 204,084 procedures were performed involving botulinum toxin injectable in Italy.


The U.K. is projected to witness a significant CAGR over the forecast period. The highly aware and economically stable population is driving the growth of the market across the country.


Scandinavia and Spain will grow at lower CAGR, similar to the Netherlands and Belgium, due to the lesser volume of cosmetic procedures in these countries, coupled with limited expenditure on cosmetic procedures, including injectable fillers.


Greece and the rest of Europe are anticipated to witness a relatively lower CAGR during the forecast period.
