Veterinary Lasers Market Growth & Trends

The global veterinary lasers market size is expected to reach USD 160.8 million by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 7.7% from 2022 to 2030. The key factors driving the market include rising pet adoption, initiatives by market stakeholders, new market entrants, and rising income in emerging nations. For instance, BIOLASE, Inc., specializing in laser technology, has started to enter new markets including veterinary, pain management, and otolaryngology to address the unmet needs in these promising markets. Aesculight, on the other hand, is the only company manufacturing veterinary CO2 surgical lasers in North America.

Due to the limited access to veterinary care and dampened demand during the COVID-19 outbreak, the market for veterinary lasers was negatively impacted in 2020. Additionally, the market was impacted by the shift in healthcare priorities, a decrease in the number of surgeries, and reduced pet visits in adherence to social distancing norms. The market recovered gradually during 2021 as movement restrictions were eased and vet visits increased. The market is also anticipated to expand considerably over the forecast period as all economies open up and people adjust to the new normal.

Furthermore, the market for veterinary lasers is driven by the rise in the incidence of disorders including osteoarthritis, sprains, strains, otitis, and other chronic ailments. The prevalence of chronic diseases is also increasing due to the increasing number of risk factors such as obesity in pets. For instance, as per a study published in the Frontiers in Veterinary Science Journal in August 2020, Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were estimated to be beneficial in reducing lameness in arthritic dogs. The study also suggested that MSC treatment could be used as a safe, effective, and long-term therapy for canine osteoarthritis.
