Laser Resurfacing Market Research, 2031
The global laser resurfacing market size was valued at $283.6 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $649.9 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 8.7% from 2022 to 2031. Laser resurfacing uses lasers to tighten skin, remove benign (non-cancerous) and malignant lesions, diminish the appearance of wrinkles and scars, even out skin coloration (pigmentation), and minimize the appearance of wrinkles and scars. The laser procedure exposes the uneven skin to brief, targeted, and pulsing light beams. Laser skin resurfacing eliminates the skin very precisely, layer by layer, by vaporizing it. Lasers are used to remove the epidermis, the top layer of skin, while heat is applied to the dermis, the layer underneath. The stimulation of new collagen fiber production by the lasers results in the production of new skin that is smoother and firmer. Other names for this widespread procedure include Las abrasion, laser peel, and laser vaporization.
Growth of the global laser resurfacing market size is majorly driven by increase in the number of laser resurfacing procedure and rise in number of product launch and product approval for laser resurfacing device.

As per the same source, around 225,141 full field ablative procedures were conducted worldwide in 2020. In addition, increase in self-awareness among young population regarding aesthetic appearance propels the demand for facial aesthetics treatment, which fuels the market growth. Moreover, increase in sedentary lifestyle in young population, further led to appearance issues such as facial hair and pigmentation, making them conscious about their appearance, which increases the need for laser resurfacing procedure. For instance, ablative and non-ablative laser resurfacing treatment that aims to reduce facial fine lines and wrinkles, encourages young population to opt for such kind of facial aesthetic procedure. This surges the demand for facial aesthetic procedure and thus, drives the growth of the laser resurfacing market.
Technological advancement in the field of healthcare sector is anticipated to fuel the growth of laser resurfacing market. Moreover, rise in the number of product approval for new laser resurfacing device is attributed to boost the market growth. For instance, in April 2022, Cutera, a leading provider of dermatology solutions, announced the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approval of AviClear, only device for the treatment of mild, moderate, and severe acne. In addition, in February 2019, Cutera, a leading provider of dermatology solutions, announced the product launch of the excel V+® the next generation laser platform. The excel V+ is a technological advancement that includes 50% more power and treatment speed, optimized delivery systems and parameters for unparalleled precision in treating vascular lesions and pigmentation concerns. Moreover, in April 2021, Lynton Lasers Ltd., a manufacturer of aesthetic products, announced the launch of CoolPeel, an advanced laser peel treatment that makes the benefits of CO2 resurfacing. CO2 lasers have long been regarded as an aesthetic gold standard for treating ageing skin and they have become synonymous with real improvement in wrinkles, age spots, and skin texture.
On the other hand, side effects and high cost of laser resurfacing treatment and side effects associated with it are anticipated to restrain the growth of the laser resurfacing market.
The COVID-19 outbreak is anticipated to have a negative impact on growth of the global laser resurfacing market. Most of the ablative and non-ablative laser treatments schedules are postpone or rescheduled due conversion of dermatology clinics into COVID hospitals. A number of clinics and hospitals were restructured to increase hospital capacities for patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Non-essential surgical procedure was cancelled due to the pandemic. Laser resurfacing procedures are non-emergency procedures that significantly hampered revenue of aesthetic companies. In addition, sudden sharp cut in monthly income of people is anticipated to have a negative impact on the laser resurfacing market. Implementation of lockdown, owing to the COVID-19 outbreak resulted in decline in number of patient visits for aesthetic procedures during the pandemic, which hampered the laser resurfacing market growth.
