Plastic Surgeons in Australia - Industry Market Research Report

Slimming down: Falling current-year discretionary income has nipped industry revenue growth

The performance of the Plastic Surgeons industry has been mixed over the past five years. A rise in the number of overweight and obese individuals in Australia, and population growth in target demographics, including middle-aged and older females, have been the key drivers for the industry. Increasing social acceptance of plastic surgery has made potential customers more likely to undergo industry procedures. Females aged 35 and older make up the industry's largest market, as members of this demographic are the most likely to undergo anti-ageing procedures offered by the industry. Non-surgical procedures such as botox injections have become increasingly popular. Obesity levels in Australia have remained high, driving strong demand for weight loss procedures, such as liposuction. A growing interest in non-invasive aesthetic procedures has also driven demand. Industry operators primarily provide medical techniques intended to enhance the physical appearance of consumers for cosmetic or reconstructive purposes. Firms consist of medical specialist clinics where licensed professional doctors perform surgical and non-surgical procedures. This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
