Artificial skin market has shown a promising advancement over the last decade. Artificial skin grafting is a painless technique which can heal severe skin wounds and injuries caused by intensive burns or accidents.

Global Artificial Skin Market Analysis

The global artificial skin market is growing at an unexpected CAGR during the forecast period. Traditionally, the skin graft methods were practiced to treat the wounds in which a portion of skin from the donor site of the patient body was taken and placed on the site of the wound. This method would require a lot of time and the patient experienced a lot of pain. In case of artificial skin, the skin is made from extracted collagen and fibroblast in a controlled environment in laboratory.

Increase in the number of burn and accidental cases have triggered the growth of artificial skin market, globally. However, lack to specialized healthcare professional restrains the market from growing.

It is expected that the global artificial skin market will grow substantially in the forecast period

The growing market of artificial skin globally is due to increase in the number of burn and accidental cases. According to a report by American Burn Association, in 2016, approximately 487,000 people underwent medical treatment for minor burns, while around 72,000 people were hospitalized for major skin burn injuries.

There are many factors which are driving the artificial skin market such as increasing cases of acid attack, burns, and skin related disorders. High demands in cosmetic surgeries to cater to self-satisfaction and increased self-esteem have also paced the market for artificial skin.

Lack of highly specialized laboratory and proper healthcare infrastructure has restrained the market

Certain restraining factors hindering the growth of the market are stringent regulatory approvals for materials used for artificial skin surgery, lack of highly specialized laboratory in developing countries, and high treatment cost. Lack of good medical infrastructure and low access to medical facilities in the developing countries is a major restraint for artificial skin market growth.

Advances in research and development activities are predicted to cater massive opportunities in the market

To survive in the market, companies must develop their research and development strategies. In order to increase their profit margins, companies are investing a huge amount in their research and development domain. In January 2019, AVITA Medical launched its recent innovation RECELL System, which helps in the production of a suspension of Spray-On Skin Cells. Moreover, in April 2019, South Korean company T&R Biofab registered a patent for its innovative 3D bio printing technology to create artificial skin. Such key developments are projected to boost the artificial skin market in the coming years.

Global Artificial Skin Market, by Material Types:

Permanent artificial skin sub-segment is expected to show an increase in the market share

On the basis of material used to construct skin artificially, the market is segmented into three types: temporary, permanent, and composite skin type. The flourishing demand for permanent artificial skin is expected to fuel the global market growth over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027 due to increasing burn cases.

Old people are more susceptible to various chronic diseases and severe wounds like leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This factor has encouraged the manufacturers to develop permanent artificial skin replacements like Dermagraft by organogenesis. Dermagraft contains healthy living fibroblasts, selectively arranged on a bio absorbable scaffold that produces collagen, growth factors, and extracellular matrix proteins to help build the granulation tissue on the burnt area on skin.

Global Artificial Skin Market, by Distribution:

Hospitals are projected to hold a major portion in the global artificial skin market

The global artificial skin market is majorly segmented into hospitals, burn care centers, and clinics. In hospitals, artificial skin technology is used in cases of deep skin wounds and also in cosmetic surgery. Highly specialized healthcare providers use this technology to treat chronic wounds.

The hospitals are mostly preferred due to high availability of trained healthcare professionals who are capable to provide proper treatment for skin wounds. This makes hospitals the leading revenue generator in the global artificial skin market.

In accordance to the increasing demand of this artificial skin, governments are installing specialized burn care center with advance facilities to use artificial skin technology to treat burnt skin.
