The rise in the number of reconstruction surgeries being undertaken is a significant factor contributing to the market growth. Tissue expansion is a technique used by surgeons or restorative to grow skin, bones, and other related issues. The increase in road accidents and burn-related issues were the major issues that require tissue expansion, and the rise in the incidence of congenital deformity and the development of technologically advanced products are also a few factors and the prevalence of breast cancer has led to increasing demand for tissue-expanding procedures. Growth in technology to treat legs, hands, and skin using tissue-expanding procedures has also led to a rise in demand for such procedures. An increase in concern among people regarding their physical appearance has propelled the tissue expander market.

MARKET RESTRAINTS:

The market is restrained by the amount of time taken for tissue expansion procedures, concerns about the procedure's negative effects, and a lack of product availability in various developing regions of the world. These surgeries require modern equipment and professional surgeons, all of which charge high prices, rendering the operation unaffordable for several citizens. North America has adequate facilities, but African countries may lack adequate technology. All these factors hamper the growth of the market.

MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:

Scalp reduction surgery and reconstruction of the face, neck, arms, and legs are some of the procedures that use tissue expanders. As a result, the demand for tissue expanders has increased as the number of breast reconstruction operations and other reconstruction surgeries have increased. With an increase in the prevalence of trauma cases, a rise in the number of road accidents, and substantial investment by leading industry players considering potential opportunities in the area, countries like India, China, and Singapore are leading the Asia-Pacific sector.

MARKET CHALLENGES:

The main challenge for this market is the availability of appropriate healthcare technology to perform surgery in many regions. North America has proper facilities, but countries in Africa may not have adequate technology. Another issue hindering the growth of the market is the affordability of these surgeries. These surgeries require modern technology equipment and experienced surgeons, which then charge many fees and make the procedure unaffordable for many.

Impact of COVID-19 on the global tissue expander market:

Medical tourism is the primary factor that was increasing the popularity of these procedures around the world. As COVID-19 led to lockdown in major countries, the medical tourism business was severely impacted, and as a result, the tissue expander market was also impacted negatively. The hospitals also did not allow surgeries that were not necessary to perform due to rising worries of the coronavirus spread. Breast tissue expander surgeries are done to make the physical appearance look good and also reduced in number due to the risk of spreading the virus.
