The expanding geriatric population is a major factor driving growth in the biological skin substitutes market, as aging individuals are more prone to chronic wounds due to reduced skin elasticity, slower cell regeneration, and diminished collagen production. These physiological changes increase susceptibility to pressure sores, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous leg ulcers, often requiring more advanced wound care solutions than traditional dressings.

Additionally, biological skin substitutes provide a protective layer that supports the natural healing process by mimicking the structure of human skin and creating an environment conducive to tissue repair. This is especially advantageous for elderly patients who may not possess the regenerative capacity required for conventional wound treatments.

The European market for biological skin substitutes is characterized by strong government support for healthcare advancements and a well-established regulatory framework. Countries across Europe, particularly in Western Europe, benefit from robust healthcare systems that support the adoption of advanced wound care solutions. The region’s focus on reducing healthcare costs and improving outcomes for chronic disease patients drives the demand for biological skin substitutes.
