MARKET DRIVERS

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, around 40% of women have visible hair loss when they are 40.

The demand for hair loss treatment products is growing at a rapid pace, with significant growth in trichology centers in recent years, and the market is further likely to grow with more demand during the forecast period. Hair loss is an essential issue for men and women around the world. Men suffer from alopecia for a long time due to androgenetic alopecia or general male baldness. However, in recent years, hair loss in women has increased due to external factors such as environmental pollution and chemicals. Lifestyle changes, such as excessive intake of alcohol, tobacco, and related products and increased stress levels, are considered powerful triggers for alopecia. The exact cause is unknown, but some cases are associated with genetic factors. Also, higher disposable income and greater emphasis on aesthetic appearance should contribute to the demand for hair loss treatment products. 

In most cases, women's hair loss affects their appearance and emotional well-being. Therefore, the American Hair Loss Association recognized that hair loss in women is a condition that changes dangerous lives that can no longer be ignored. Hormonal imbalances and diseases are the leading causes of hair loss. In such cases, hair loss often reverses naturally because the subject experiences unpredictable growth and shedding patterns. The main drivers of the market are changes in lifestyle patterns, the adoption of busy schedules that increase the level of stress, which leads to frequent hair loss in the early stages of the young population, higher disposable income, and greater emphasis on appearance.

Moreover, the increasing number of trichology clinics and advances in technology for the regrowth of hair, along with the wide range of products available in the market, are anticipated to result in tremendous growth opportunities for the market players in the next few years.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The presence of alternative treatment options for hair loss, such as hair transplant surgery, laser and phototherapy, and expensive drug costs will limit the market in the prognosis period.
