The increasing consciousness regarding facial features and the growing influence of social media and celebrities on the general population is expected to boost the demand for buccal fat removal procedures globally. Buccal fat removal is the procedure that aids in enhancing the overall facial contour and zygomatic prominences of the face. It enhances the facial aesthetics, specifically of the upper cheek area, and thins the face.
Furthermore, the shift of patients from invasive surgeries to minimally invasive surgeries is expected to drive the growth of the market during the forecast period. According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Report 2021, the total number of face and head surgical procedures are rising globally, increasing by around 14.8% from 2020 to 5,211,933 procedures globally. Moreover, face and head surgical procedures contribute to around 40.59% of the total surgical procedures. Thus, the market is expected to witness significant growth over the next few years.
The buccal fat removal procedure is often considered an effective procedure for individuals with ptosis in middle age. The Asian population is considered to have a relatively larger buccal fat pad and thicker skin compared to the Caucasoid population. Hence, the demand for these surgeries in the Asia Pacific region is growing owing to the presence of an ideal potential population in the region compared to other regions.
The COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the market majorly due to the postponement and halt of elective surgeries. Moreover, the decline of these procedures was majorly to prioritize resources and expenses for necessary care. However, the later pandemic stage witnessed a surge in demand for aesthetic procedures, including buccal fat removal procedures.
Gender Insights
Based on gender type, the female segment held the largest market share of 92.89% in 2022 and is projected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the growing demand among women to look younger and to look more sculpted. According to the plastic surgery clinic in London, around 99 buccal fat reduction procedures were performed in the clinic from 2020 to 2022, and around 67% of them were female, and around 33% were male. Hence, the growing demand for buccal fat removal among the young female population has led to the launch of customized procedures for women.
However, the male segment is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increasing preference of males for facial counter procedures. According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery 2021, surgical cosmetic procedures in male is growing significantly from 13.5% in 2018 to 13.9% in 2021. Moreover, the growing acceptance of aesthetic treatments has empowered men globally to consider buccal fat reduction as a procedure for aesthetic appearance, which is contributing to the growth of the market.
End-use Insights
Based on end-use, cosmetic surgery clinics held the dominant market share of 59.55% in 2022 and is expected to witness the fastest growth over the forecast period. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the lower cost of treatment at these clinics and the availability of cosmetic surgical procedures under the supervision of a licensed physician. The buccal fat removal procedure is majorly offered by cosmetic surgery clinics as these procedures require less time, approximately 30 to 60 minutes.
However, the hospital segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. Hospitals are more geared up for critically operative procedures and have accredited physicians. This aids in handling any complications during surgical procedures, which is expected to contribute to the growth of the market. However, the cost of the procedure in hospital settings is high and is not reimbursed or not covered by insurance, which is expected to limit the demand for these procedures in hospital settings.
Regional Insights
North America dominated the market with a share of 38.29% in 2022 and is anticipated to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The high share of the market in the region can be due to the growth of the market in the U.S. In the U.S., a growing number of adult men and women are becoming open to experimenting with new procedures for enhancing their facial features. According to the article published in NBC, the number of buccal fat removal procedures increased by around 70% in 2021 in the U.S. Moreover, the U.S. population is rapidly aging and is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. With the aging population comes various skin-related issues, including wrinkles, fine lines, and dehydration of the skin. Hence, these consumer demographics are key consumers for the market.
The Asia Pacific region is estimated to be the fastest-growing region over the forecast period. The market growth in the region can be attributed to the growing awareness regarding skin care. Moreover, the cosmetic surgery clinics offering such procedures are growing in the region and are offering advanced services in state-of-the-art facilities. The higher cost of such procedures in the region is expected to limit the growth of the market. For instance, the average cost of buccal fat reduction in India is around USD 305 to USD 488 (Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 40,000).
