NORTH AMERICA ANTI-ACNE DERMAL PATCH MARKET FORECAST 2023-2032

The North America anti-acne dermal patch market growth assessment includes the evaluation of the United States and Canada. As per an article by John Hopkins Medicine, acne vulgaris impacts people aged between 11 and 30 in the United States. The key factors supplementing acne prevalence are the large consumption of sugar, refined grains, dairy, and meat. In addition, diabetes and obesity, highly prevalent in the country, are linked to acne-promoting hormone shifts leading to increased acne prevalence. Such aspects are evaluated to raise the use of anti-acne dermal patches. 

Furthermore, skin care routines are trending in the United States. Millenials and people aged between 35 and 45 are spending more on skin care as compared to the rest of the population. Moreover, the growing awareness about harmful ingredients in cosmetic products and sustainable lifestyles offers growth opportunities. Besides, some of the most popular acne patch brands, like Starface, ZitSticka, 3M, etc., are headquartered in the United States. 

The North America anti-acne dermal patch market scope includes age group, ingredient type, and distribution channel. The age group segment includes above 65, 45 to 64, 18 to 44, and 10 to 17.

The above 65 group has minimal market share since they use cell phones less frequently than other age groups. As a result, they are less active online, thereby having restricted access to social media platforms. Therefore, they are less aware of modern skin care technologies like hydrocolloid patches and are more inclined toward prescribed drugs than self-skin care treatment. 

The 45 to 64 group is not active social media users. They are more concerned with daily needs and a healthy diet over short-term skin care treatments. Also, given their diminished social presence, the psychological burden of acne is insignificant. 

The ingredient type segment includes herbal-based and chemical-based. Herbal anti-acne dermal patches are made without synthetic ingredients. Personal care product manufacturers are replacing synthetic hydrocolloids with natural ones to cater to consumer demands. Also, Ayurvedic and natural acne treatments are gaining popularity. The rising global demand for herbal-based skin care products is primarily propelling the expansion of the herbal-based anti-acne patch market. This is attributed to their lack of side effects and natural healing properties. 

Furthermore, natural acne patches are made from readily accessible materials like mulberries and silk. The silk comprises fibroin and lignin. Fibroin’s capacity to accelerate fibroblast growth helps acne wounds heal quickly. Urban Yog is an Indian anti-acne dermal patch brand offering hydrocolloid acne patches made of 100% natural ingredients. 

Some of the major market players in the North America anti-acne dermal patch market are Starface, 3M, Peter Thomas Roth, ZitSticka, etc.
