Skin Biopsy Market Research, 2031
The global skin biopsy market size was valued at $101.2 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $181.6 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6% from 2022 to 2031. Skin biopsy is a technique used in diagnosis of skin cancer and other skin disorders including actinic keratosis, dermatitis, psoriasis, and others. Skin biopsy involves removal of skin sample from the skin lesion or skin infection, and then analyzing it under the microscope for the detection of cancerous cells. This technique not only act as a diagnostic tool for skin cancer but also sometimes may assist in treatment of cancer by complete removal of cancerous cells. Furthermore, the technique is less invasive in nature and thus causes small incisions to the skin which requires less recovery time. Thus, there is a huge adoption of this technique for the diagnosis of skin cancer, due to the advantages offered by skin biopsy.
Market dynamics
The growth of the skin biopsy market size is expected to be driven by high potential in untapped, emerging markets, due to availability of improving healthcare infrastructure, increase in unmet healthcare needs, rise in prevalence of skin cancer cases, and surge in demand for advanced healthcare facilities.

In past decade, there is a huge rise in cancer cases around the globe owing to various factors including the change in lifestyle and environmental conditions.
Moreover, rise in skin cancer cases will subsequently increase the demand for skin biopsy as a diagnostic procedure and drive skin biopsy market growth. For instance, according to American Academy of Dermatology Association, more than 1 million Americans were living with melanoma as of 2022 and it is also estimated that 197,700 new cases of melanoma, 97,920 noninvasive and 99,780 invasive, were diagnosed in the U.S. in 2022. This highlights the estimated increase in skin cancer cases in U.S. in coming years, which increases the demand for skin biopsy for diagnosis purpose. Also, more people receive skin cancer diagnoses each year in U.S. than all other cancers combined, including breast, prostate, lung, and colon cancer. This drives the growth the skin biopsy market.
In addition, increase in prevalence of various skin disorders, also propels the growth during skin biopsy market forecast. Skin conditions such as skin cancer, actinic keratosis, dermatitis, psoriasis, skin infection and others can be diagnosed using skin biopsy procedure. Thus, increase in number of cases of these mentioned skin conditions, will also increase the demand for skin biopsy and also rise the demand for skin biopsy products.
Furthermore, the healthcare industry in emerging economies is developing at a significant rate, owing to rise in demand for enhanced healthcare services, significant investments by government to improve healthcare infrastructure, and development of the medical tourism industry in emerging countries.

Though several factors boost the growth of skin biopsy market, factors such as high cost associated with the procedure provides hindrance to the growth of the market. Also, lack of awareness about advanced diagnostic techniques in developing regions such as Asia-Pacific and LAMEA, also acts as a restraint to the market. On the other hand, technological advances and new product innovations and its launch and approval in the market is anticipated to drive the market during the forecast period.
Furthermore, the outbreak of COVID-19 has disrupted workflows in the health care sector around the world. The disease has forced a number of industries to shut their doors temporarily, including several sub-domains of health care. The global skin biopsy industry experienced a decline in 2020 due to global economic recession led by COVID-19. In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak disrupted the supply chain across various end-user industries like food & beverage, healthcare, and industrial.
In addition, number of skin biopsy procedures also decreased due to factors such as decreased early detection of diseases, due to the public health regulations and social distancing. There was also a decrease in access to primary health care and specialist care along with lack of transportation services which caused hindrance to the growth of the market during the pandemic. In addition, patients also refused to seek care and treatment for skin cancers due to increased risk of corona virus infection. However, the skin biospy industry is anticipated to witness recovery after regularization of the supply chain post pandemic, and show stable growth in the coming future.
