According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS), there was a 27.3% growth in worldwide total non-surgical procedures between 2015 and 2019. In addition, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), the number of minimally invasive aesthetic procedures witnessed about a 200% increase during 2000-2017. Moreover, about 15.9 million minimally invasive cosmetic procedures were performed in 2018, which was a 2% rise in comparison to 2017.

This is further boosted by the growing geriatric population globally and their willingness to retain their youthful appearances. Further, if patients have developed vitiligo and if not treated, the extent of its effects keep on increasing as the person ages. Hence, growing geriatric population is also a factor driving market growth. According to the ASPS, the population aged 40-54 years old made up 49% of the total cosmetic procedures in the US in 2018. This accounted for about 7.8 million total cosmetic procedures. Furthermore, the population aged 55 and above accounted for about 3.8 million minimally invasive procedures in 2018. Thus, the increasing geriatric population also drives the demand for minimally invasive cosmetic procedures.
