COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the whole aesthetic and beauty market. The demand for all the noninvasive and invasive aesthetic processes was negatively affected during the pandemic, which also include the body contouring devices market. The imposition of various rules and regulations like the travel ban, lockdown, and others has negatively impacted the demand for body contouring devices across the world. In addition, as body contouring is among the non-essential activities, people have reduced their spending on it, hence hampered the growth of the market during the pandemic.
Market Growth Factors:
The increasing popularity of cosmetic surgeries
Cosmetic surgeries are gaining more momentum in the market across the globe, which is increasing the demand for body contouring procedures among the customers. People prefer these surgeries to improve their appearance and look better than before. There are several procedures carried out by the professionals to enhance any particular area of the body that has excess fat or untoned skin. Along with that, the high influence of the fashion and film industry is motivating people to imitate their role models and hence, fueling the growth of the body contouring devices market.
Rising prevalence of obesity across the world
The increasing number of obese people is among the key factors supporting the growth of the body contouring devices market. Obesity is the state of an individual in which excess fats are accumulated in various body parts that can be risky for a person's health. In addition, a person with a body mass index (BMI) of over 25 comes into the category of overweight, and over 30 is obese.
Market Restraining Factor:
High possibilities of side effects
There are many body contouring procedures that include cutting, eliminating excess skin, and suturing the targeted area with fine stitches to reduce the risk of scarring in the least visible body parts. However, scarring is an unavoidable thing in these procedures. There are several related risks attached to cosmetic surgery as a huge amount of skin is eliminated over the contouring surgery, which discourage many people to choose these procedures, hence hindering the growth of the body contouring market during the forecasting period.
