Amniotic Membrane Market Segmentation By Type ( Lyophilized Amniotic Membrane and Cryopreservation Amniotic Membrane); By Application (Surgical Wound and Ophthalmology); By End-User Industry (Research Centers Laboratory, Specialized Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Centers and Hospitals) - Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2027

Product Overview

Amniotic membrane is the innermost film developing the fetal membranes. It comprises stroma, epithelium and basement membrane. Amniotic membrane consists of three layers including fibroblast layer, compact layer and an outer layer. It has the ability to enhance healing therefore it is utilized in surgical operations related to skin, brain and head and neck. Amniotic membrane can also use as a dressing in order to ease ocular surface and enhance healings for various ailments. Amniotic membrane is obtained from human placenta. The amniotic membrane comprises of proteins that are used for tissue regeneration, corneal disorders and other treatment applications. Amniotic membrane has anti-inflammatory and anti- scarring effects.

Market Size and Forecast

The global amniotic membrane market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR around 12.8% during 2017-2027. It is projected to reach USD 2.0 billion by 2027. The growth in the amniotic membrane market can be attributed to growing number of geriatric population and increase in the application of amniotic membrane.

The global amniotic membrane market can be segmented on the basis of type and application and end user. On the basis of type it is sub-segmented into lyophilized amniotic membrane and cryopreservation amniotic membrane. Lyophilized amniotic membrane is anticipated to be the leading segment on the account of storage of the membrane for a long period of time at room temperature. On the basis of application it is sub-segmented into surgical wound and ophthalmology. On the basis of end-user industry it is sub-segmented into research centers, laboratory, specialized clinics, ambulatory surgical centers and hospitals. Hospitals sub-segment is the largest sub-segment on the account of availability of highly developed diagnosis devices.

By region, global amniotic membrane market is segmented into North America, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Europe, Middle East and Africa. North America is anticipated to contribute highest market share on the account of better healthcare facilities, increasing awareness regarding various healthcare amenities and high presence of key market players in the region. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region for the global amniotic membrane market on the account of rising population especially geriatric population which in turn increases the cases of the chronic diseases.

Growth Drivers

Increasing Cosmetic Surgeries

According to American Society of Plastic Surgeons report 2017, 17.5 million people go through surgical cosmetics products in the U.S. as people are conscious towards skin improvement. There are many amniotic tissue based product available in market for skin improvement. Usage of these products for burn injury treatment leads to rapid recovery in wound healing. The reduction in pain and easy movement of affected areas proves that the usage of these tissue based product are valuable for skin replenishment. Since, it is cheaper than other tissue based product such as xenografts and allografts, ensures that it is widely used across the globe. These factors propels the market over the forecast period.

Increasing Investment in Research & Development Activities

The use of amniotic membrane  in injury repair such as burns, head and neck  injury is the driving factor of market growth The antimicrobial properties and high separation power ease the access of amniotic membrane for surgeon in its research application. Researchers are focusing on wound development and subsequent repair of tissue injury, a multitude of events occur to improve healing and accelerate the process of skin and tissue recovery. Repair begins quickly after the emergence of an injury and continues for several weeks. Different climatic conditions or environment can affect injury improvement with respect to speed and quality of the repair. Key players are investing for improvement of the efficiency of amniotic membrane for widely acceptance. These factors fuels the market growth over the forecast period.

Restraints

Lack of Knowledge

It is difficult to understand the technical term associated with amniotic membrane as it requires biological knowledge and skilled person. Lack of skilled and experience professional limits the market growth over the forecast period as it requires standard guidelines on tissue engineering. Lack of awareness about the amniotic tissue based products is also projected to hamper the market in near future.
