The Middle East & Africa aesthetic medical devices market was valued at US$ 863.44 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 1.87 billion by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 10.2% from 2023 to 2031.
Several parameters such as clinical improvement, risks, potential complications, and downtime after surgery influenced the required aesthetic outcome associated with cosmetic treatments. These parameters can validate plasma skin regeneration (PSR) technology as a new regenerative modality, as it has great potential in dermatology; it helps treat facial arrhythmias, sun keratosis, seborrheic keratosis, and warts. A few studies have examined the clinical effects of PSR technology on periorbital rejuvenation. With PSR, ~20% and 30% improvement in the tightening of the upper eyelid and the periorbital folds, respectively, were achieved.
After six months, ~40% improvement in acne scars on the face was achieved after the single PSR treatment. PSR has also been explored to rejuvenate the skin of the chest, neck, and back of the hands. In addition, it can be used to treat traumatic scars, benign familial pemphigus, and porokeratosis.
Understanding the impact of PSR technology on aesthetic medicine requires basic knowledge of plasma physics and histopathological aspects. Recent technological advancements will likely bring significant improvements in the aesthetic treatment of the skin. The emergence of laser and light-based technologies is promising among skin rejuvenation therapies. New laser resurfacing techniques for skin rejuvenation offer significant advantages over conventional ablative lasers such as the CO2 and erbium-YAG laser systems.
Non-ablative and fractional lasers, although not as effective as ablative therapies, are associated with significantly lower complication rates and shorter recovery periods. Market players are also launching new devices combining ablative and fractional technologies. Thus, technological advancements associated with medical aesthetic devices are anticipated to fuel the aesthetic medical devices market growth in the coming years.
The high penetration of the Internet and changing global beauty standards have further increased the demand for aesthetic procedures in the country. Moreover, social media has become an essential source of communication and reference for many people. Thus, aesthetic procedures are becoming increasingly popular via social media, especially Instagram, influencing women living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
