세계의 성대 확대 시장(2023-2030년)

Market Overview

The global vocal fold augmentation market reached US$ 2,042.8 million in 2022 and is projected to witness lucrative growth by reaching up to US$ 2,642.8 million by 2030. The vocal fold augmentation market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.3% during the forecast period (2023-2030). The key players are adopting strategies such as mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, and regional expansion to stand out as strong competitors in the vocal fold augmentation market. New product launches along with increased focus on R&D are other ways the leading players improve their market presence.

For instance, on November 6, 2020, Thyssen'sche Handelsgesellschaft mbH (THG) acquired a majority stake in SPIGGLE & THEIS Medizintechnik GmbH ("SPIGGLE & THEIS") with immediate effect. Moreover, on December 18, 2020, APrevent and hearLIFE signed the exclusive distribution agreement for APrevent VOIS in Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Brunei.

Fierce competition between market participants to expand their geographic footprints and strengthen their customer pool through several product launches & new product developments are major factors anticipated to drive market growth over the forecast period.

Vocal fold augmentation is a medical procedure that is performed to enhance the functioning of the vocal folds. It involves the use of vocal fold injection to treat various permanent causes of mild-to-moderate glottic insufficiency, such as vocal fold atrophy, paralysis, and paresis. Moreover, it can also be used for augmentation after previous framework surgery.

The global vocal fold augmentation market is expected to experience significant growth in the coming years, driven by various factors such as increasing cases of voice-related problems, rising awareness of healthcare, and advancements in technology.

Moreover, the growing geriatric population and rising demand for minimally invasive procedures are also expected to boost the market's growth. The emergence of vocal fold injection as a valuable treatment modality for a variety of laryngeal disorders in the past decade is also contributing to the market's growth.

Market Dynamics

The rising number of laryngeal cancer cases is expected to drive the growth of the global vocal fold augmentation market

The global vocal fold augmentation market is being driven by the increasing prevalence of voice problems, including laryngeal cancer. For instance, The American Cancer Society reports that there are around 13,150 new cases of laryngeal cancer each year, with risk factors such as HPV infection, tobacco use, and alcohol consumption contributing to the rise in cases. As a result, there is an increasing demand for vocal fold augmentation procedures to improve vocal function in patients with laryngeal disorders.

The global vocal fold augmentation market growth may face constraints due to a lack of skilled professionals

The vocal fold augmentation market is also affected by shortages in the healthcare workforce, as the demand for quality healthcare professionals increases. According to usnews.com, the U.S. is estimated to face shortages in several healthcare professions by 2025, including home health aides, nursing assistants, medical and lab technologists and technicians, and nurse practitioners. These shortages are most apparent and dramatic in certain professions, which could lead to challenges in meeting the demand for vocal fold augmentation procedures and treatments.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global vocal fold augmentation market, causing disruptions in the supply chain and manufacturing of medical devices and equipment. This has resulted in delays and shortages, affecting the availability of products and services in the market. Moreover, many healthcare facilities have reduced or postponed elective procedures, including vocal fold augmentation surgeries, to prioritize COVID-19 patients and reduce the risk of transmission.

However, despite these challenges, the market is expected to recover as the pandemic situation improves, driven by the growing prevalence of voice disorders and the increasing demand for innovative surgical techniques and new products in the market. Many manufacturers and service providers have also adapted to the pandemic by offering telemedicine services and developing virtual training and support programs for healthcare professionals.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict Analysis

The current conflict between Russia and Ukraine could have an indirect effect on the vocal fold augmentation market by interrupting the manufacturing and distribution channels, resulting in shortages of supplies and higher costs for products that could have a greater impact on smaller firms.

However, despite these challenges, the market is projected to expand in the long run due to a growing awareness of healthcare and the rising prevalence of voice-related disorders. This is expected to create business opportunities for companies in the industry. Although the short-term effects of the war and the ongoing pandemic may cause disruptions, the market is predicted to rebound and continue to thrive over time. As a result, it is crucial to track the impact of the conflict on the global healthcare industry as a whole.

Segment Analysis

The global vocal fold augmentation market is segmented based on material type, treatment type, end user, and region.

The carboxymethylcellulose segment is expected to hold the highest vocal fold augmentation market share

The carboxymethylcellulose segment is expected to be the dominant segment in the global vocal fold augmentation market, holding 30.7% of the market share over the forecast period. The use of carboxymethylcellulose vocal cord injection is expected to be the leading technique in the global vocal fold augmentation market. Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) is a thickening agent derived from cellulose obtained from materials such as wood pulp or cotton lint, which is reacted with a derivative of acetic acid (found in vinegar) and is also referred to as cellulose gum.

Gels made from carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and cross-linked hyaluronic acid are commonly used as injectable materials for temporary or resorbable vocal fold medialization. For example, PROLARYN GEL, an aqueous/glycerin/carboxymethylcellulose gel implant, is used to augment the size of displaced or deformed vocal folds so that they can meet the opposing fold in the midline, leading to improved phonation. PROLARYN GEL is particularly suitable for short-term vocal fold augmentation or for patients who want to evaluate augmentation before undergoing long-term procedures.

Geographical Analysis

The presence of major players to dominate the North America region.

The vocal fold augmentation market is expected to grow significantly in North America region over the forecast period due to the presence of key market players who hold a major global vocal fold augmentation market share of around 2/5th and also due to an increase in cases of vocal fold paresis or paralysis (VFP) caused by COVID-19 vaccination, leading to dysphonia and respiratory distress.

To address these issues, several companies, such as Sofregen Medical, Inc., are developing products like Silk Voice, a soft tissue bulking agent injection that helps with vocal fold medialization and insufficiency. Silk Voice injection helps improve phonation by increasing the size of the displaced or malformed vocal fold, allowing it to converge with the opposing fold at the midline. An urgent indication for Silk Voice injection could be vocal fold insufficiency and severe aspiration issues.

Competitive Landscape

The major global players in the market include Merz Holding GmbH & Co KG(Merz Pharmaceuticals, LLC), Sofregen Medical Inc., Hoya Corporation(PENTAX Medical America, Inc.), SPIGGLE & THEIS Medizintechnik GmbH, Inhealth Technologies, APrevent Medical Inc., and Boston Medical Products, Inc., among others.
