Global aesthetic threads market - 2024-2031

Aesthetic Threads market reached US$YY million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$YY million by 2031, growing at a CAGR ofYY% during the forecast period 2024-2031.

Aesthetic threads are medical sutures injected using a needle underneath the skin to lift and rejuvenate the skin. Suspension threads are a variety of long cosmetic threads with cones or barbs, which pull backward on sagging skin when injected with a needle into the target area on the face.

Rejuvenation threads have a less lifting mechanism, but they stimulate natural collagen production when injected underneath the skin. The thread lift procedure has been popularized for brow-, midface, jowl, and neck-lifting, and it is credited with many advantages.

Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints

Increasing use of minimally invasive treatments

The increasing demand for minimally invasive treatments is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. People are seeking procedures that involve the least amount of downtime. In general, thread lifts require a shorter recovery period than typical facelifts.

For instance, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons report stated that around 115,261 eyelid surgeries were performed in 2022 which is almost an 11% increase from 2019. This procedure involves placing medical-grade threads under the skin to pull sagging skin into position, which lifts the eyelids and stimulates collagen production. The increase in the number of eyelid surgeries increases the demand for aesthetic threads.

Additionally, in 2022, around 21,429 upper arm lift procedures were performed in the US. Thus, these factors are increasing the demand for aesthetic threads which is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.

High cost of the procedures

High cost of cosmetic procedures is expected to hinder the market growth. As these procedures are not permanent and have to be repeated, individuals cannot afford the treatment cost and thus it can impact the market growth negatively.

Segment Analysis

The aesthetic threads market is segmented based on product type, application and region.

Facelift/Skin Rejuvenation segment is expected to dominate the market growth

The thread facelift procedure involves using temporary sutures to achieve a fine but significant lift in the skin. In this procedure, the cosmetic surgeon removes the loose skin by stitching up portions instead of surgically. Unlike a traditional surgical facelift, the thread lift does not involve incisions or deep-tissue manipulation.

It is a much easier process for the patient, involving getting filler-like substances instead of facelift surgery. The major advantage of opting for a thread lift rather than a facelift among most patients is the reduced recovery time. This procedure is also gaining popularity compared to surgical procedures due to the increasing demand for non-surgical procedures worldwide.

For instance, the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) released the results of its annual Global Survey on Aesthetic/Cosmetic Procedures at the ISAPS Olympiad Athens World Congress 2023, which brought together more than 1,000 attendees from 90 countries to discuss the latest scientific research, innovations and techniques to improve patient safety in aesthetic plastic surgery. The report shows an 11.2% overall increase in procedures performed by plastic surgeons in 2022 with more than 14.9 million surgical and 18.8 million non-surgical procedures performed worldwide. Thus, the above factors are expected to drive the segment growth in the forecast period.

North America is expected to hold a significant position in the aesthetic threads market share

North America dominated the major aesthetic threads market, with the United States a major contributor. Though relatively new, thread lift is one of the fastest-growing cosmetic procedures in the United States. It has received much significance for many years, which may boost the aesthetic threads market in the coming years.

For instance, according to the report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, it stated that around 72,668 facelift procedures were performed in 2022, which is almost an 8% increase from pre-pandemic.

Additionally, the presence of a vast number of cosmetic clinics in the region also acts as a factor for market growth. The increasing cosmetic procedures increase the demand for the threads which could drive the market growth in the region. Thus, the above factors are expected to hold the segment in the dominant position.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 outbreak has adversely impacted the industry, and the supply chains of several medical companies are on hold or at risk of being held up. The beauty and personal care (BPC) industry declined during the COVID-19 outbreak, but the impact was not as severe as in other industries. Though consumer discretionary spending decreased, the BPC market saw a behavioral shift toward safe and reliable products. Plastic surgeons have received a surge in inquiries for cosmetic procedures after the easing of lockdowns, with people caring more about their appearance.
