The Hair Restoration Market size is estimated at USD 6.91 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 10.61 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 8.96% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The impact of COVID-19 was adverse on the hair restoration market, owing to the cancellations in cosmetic procedures globally, including hair restoration procedures. However, as restrictions have eased, hair transplant clinics have reopened and resumed their operations. The increased use of telemedicine and virtual consultations allowed hair transplant clinics to continue providing their services to patients remotely, minimizing the impact of the pandemic on their businesses.
The pandemic highlighted the importance of personal appearance and grooming, as many people spent more time at home and on video calls. As a result, there has been an increased demand for hair restoration procedures, particularly hair transplant surgeries, as people seek to improve their appearance and confidence. Several studies reported that hair loss was a side effect of COVID-19, which impacted the growth of the market studied. For instance, according to an article published by NCBI in May 2022, many COVID-19-infected patients had significant hair loss. The study found that one to two months after a COVID-19 infection, COVID-19-associated telogen effluvium (excessive hair shedding) occurred.
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. For instance, according to the research study published by NCBI in April 2022, the prevalence of alopecia areata is 0.2% in the current year, and it can afflict people of any race or sexual orientation and common condition. Androgenetic alopecia affects 15% of women and 50% of men, particularly postmenopausal women. The high number of chemotherapies being performed around the world to treat cancer and the increasing burden of cancer is expected to increase the number of hair restoration procedures.
According to the 2021 report of the United Kingdom Hair Transplant Statistics, alopecia or hair loss affects about 21 million women and 35 million men across the world, and over 650,000 of them get hair transplants as the most effective treatment option yearly. As per the same source, hair transplant surgery is gaining traction around the world, which is expected to boost the market's growth.
Technological advancements in hair transplant devices and the launch of new services across the world are expected to have a significant impact on the hair transplant market and boost the market's growth. For instance, in April 2022, HHC (Hermest Hair Clinic) launched cost-effective and unique follicular unit extraction (FUE) method service for hair transplants in Turkey. Such developments are estimated to propel the market's growth during the forecast period.
Therefore, due to the above-mentioned factors, the hair restoration market is expected to grow during the forecast period. However, cost constraints and high post-surgery care, along with adverse side effects, are the factors that are expected to restrain the hair restoration market.
Owing to the increasing popularity of the scalp treatment segment, the market players are strategizing to increase their market share and are coming up with innovative products and seeking approvals. For instance, in April 2022, ExoCoBio Inc. launched ASCE HRLV for scalp rejuvenation and hair loss. ASCE+ HRLV is targeted for the scalp rejuvenation and hair loss market and is expected to rapidly expand its market share by introducing four effects: scalp rejuvenation, hair loss care, improvement of hair anti-aging, and trouble prevention. It is designed to care for scalp and hair regardless of age and gender.
In December 2021, QR 678 Neo, a hair loss treatment, was launched in the United Kingdom. The FDA-approved and patented product claimed to offer over a 90% success rate, and it is a nonsurgical alternative with economical prices starting from around a fifth of the cost of a hair transplant. Owing to the advantages offered by such products for scalp nourishment and reducing hair loss, the scalp segment is expected to witness lucrative growth during the forecast period.
The rising number of hair transplant surgeries and the presence of many market players in the region are also giving rise to the number of product launches and expansions in the market. For instance, in July 2021, Stemson Therapeutics received a DCVC Bio-led USD 15 million Series A financing to advance the development of Stemson's proprietary therapeutic solution to cure hair loss. The funding is estimated to boost technological advancements in products and increase the demand for hair restoration products and services in the region during the forecast period.
