The rising number of obese individuals is significantly driving the growth of the bariatric surgery devices market. Obesity is characterized by an abnormal or excessive accumulation of fat that can negatively affect health. In recent years, obesity has emerged as a global public health issue, contributing significantly to mortality and morbidity rates worldwide. The increasing use of surgical procedures among the obese population globally to reduce fat deposits is anticipated to enhance the demand for bariatric surgery devices. For instance, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that over 1 billion people were obese worldwide in 2022, including 650 million adults, 340 million adolescents, and 39 million children. Additionally, a report from the Office for Health Improvement & Disparities, a UK government entity, indicated that in 2023, 26% of the UK adult population was classified as obese, consistent with previous years’ data, reflecting a slight rise from 25.9% in 2021-2022. Consequently, the growing obese population will contribute to the expansion of the bariatric surgery devices market.

The increasing trend in medical tourism is anticipated to drive the growth of the bariatric surgery devices market in the future. Medical tourism involves individuals traveling to another country to receive medical treatment or healthcare services. Bariatric surgery devices play a crucial role in medical tourism by facilitating weight loss procedures. As reported by Omnia Health, a Dubai-based digital platform provider, in March 2023, the global medical tourism market is projected to reach $54.2 billion (54.2 billion USD) by 2027, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.23% between 2022 and 2027. Consequently, the upsurge in medical tourism is a key factor propelling the bariatric surgery devices market.

Leading companies in the bariatric surgery devices market are concentrating on the development of technologically advanced tools, such as Surgical Bipolar Energy Devices in the EMEA region, to enhance surgical precision, improve patient outcomes, and shorten recovery times. A Surgical Bipolar Energy Device in the EMEA region is specifically designed to offer precise hemostasis and tissue cutting during surgeries by using electrical current between two electrodes. For example, in May 2023, Olympus Corporation, a Japan-based company recognized for its innovations in medical technology, imaging, and life sciences, launched a Surgical Bipolar Energy Device in the EMEA region. This device is engineered to deliver accurate hemostasis and tissue cutting during surgical procedures, featuring advanced technology like adjustable power settings for optimal energy delivery, integrated safety mechanisms to prevent thermal damage, and ergonomic designs for improved maneuverability.

Major players in the bariatric surgery devices market are also focused on advancing technology, such as new spine surgery navigation systems, to refine surgical techniques and enhance patient care. New spine surgery navigation represents cutting-edge technologies that improve the precision and safety of spinal procedures through real-time imaging, robotic assistance, and augmented reality. For instance, in October 2024, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, a U.S.-based medical device and technology company, introduced ECHELON ENDOPATH, a significant advancement in surgical technology aimed at improving bariatric surgery devices. This innovative buttressing device is designed to provide sterile, bioabsorbable reinforcement to staple lines, thereby minimizing the risk of complications such as internal bleeding during and after surgical procedures. The launch of the ECHELON ENDOPATH SLR is particularly significant for bariatric surgeons, as studies indicate that a substantial portion (approximately 70%) of these professionals employ staple line reinforcement techniques in sleeve gastrectomy procedures.

In October 2022, Teleflex, a leading US-based provider of medical technologies, successfully acquired Bariatric Surgery for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition is part of Teleflex's effort to strengthen its portfolio, placing a particular emphasis on enhancing clinical efficacy and improving patient outcomes. Standard Bariatrics, the acquired company, is a US-based provider known for offering advanced surgical approaches that lead to improved outcomes in bariatric surgery.
