The global hyaluronic acid market size was valued at USD 10.04 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.7% from 2024 to 2030. Increasing geriatric population is a major factor contributing to the market growth. According to the WHO estimates, the proportion of people aged 60 years and above is estimated to increase from 1 billion in 2020 to 1.4 billion by 2030. People aged 60 years and over worldwide are estimated to be 2.1 billion by 2050. Growing awareness for antiaging products and high prevalence of target diseases are factors expected to drive market growth in the forecast period.
The COVID-19 pandemic, which is now endemic, negatively impacted the hyaluronic acid products market in 2020. This was due to the stringent lockdowns and restrictions applied by countries worldwide. Hyaluronic acid is widely used in ophthalmology applications such as intravitreal injection, dry eye treatment, and contact lenses. According to NCBI article published in August 2021, in 2020, there was a decrease in referral of eye care by 54.2% as well as visits to the ocular emergency department at an early pandemic lockdown, which declined by 73%.
Growing awareness about antiaging products is boosting the demand for antiaging cosmetic and esthetic treatments. Due to their distinctive viscoelastic and moisturizing properties and lower toxicity levels, there is a rising demand for hyaluronic acid products for minimally invasive antiaging solutions. Currently, a large number of people, especially women, are concerned about esthetics and looking younger, boosting their overall awareness about the antiaging products. The demand for hyaluronic acid products such as dermal fillers and the treatment of vesicoureteral reflux is anticipated to increase, because of the high awareness & minimally invasive nature. In North America, awareness & demand for such products is the highest. According to the Premium Beauty News published in May 2023, In the U.S., antiaging products remain highly popular among women. About 70% of women surveyed said they buy or use antiaging products, and 55% had a minimum of 3 products labelled as antiaging. They are mostly seeking anti-aging benefits: reducing wrinkles and fine lines, improving skin elasticity, sun protection, and deep hydration. These aspects are boosting the demand for the hyaluronic acid market.
Pandemic Impact |
Post COVID Outlook |
The demand for hyaluronic acid declined, as it has major applications in elective procedures, due to COVID-19 restrictions, especially during the early stages of the pandemic. Moreover, patients opted out or postponed procedures even in later stages of the pandemic to avoid the risk of infection, which negatively impacted the industry, resulting in a decline in the overall revenue |
Easing of pandemic restrictions across the world, a higher preference for injection-based elective procedures has been observed over surgeries, which is expected to boost hyaluronic acid market post-pandemic |
The use of hyaluronic acid-based supplements was reduced drastically during the pandemic. Anika Therapeutics, one of the top companies offering hyaluronic acid supplements for osteoarthritis, witnessed a 24% decline in the use of these supplements |
Top players in different segments are launching new products to maintain their position in these tough times. ClearVisc Ophthalmic Viscosurgical Device (OVD) by Bausch Health is the latest approved hyaluronic acid-based viscosupplement for ophthalmic use
|
There has been a continuous increase in the prevalence of orthopedic & ophthalmic disorders, as a result of aging population & changing lifestyles. According to Osteoarthritis Alliance U.S, It is estimated that in the U.S., every 1 in 4 adults has some type of arthritis, wherein osteoarthritis is the most commonly observed one, affecting nearly 32.5 million U.S adults. According to NVISION Eye Centers report published in December 2022, In the U.S. alone, about 12 million people age 40 and above suffer from vision impairment, with about 1 million suffering from blindness. As per World Health Organization reports, more than 2 billion people worldwide have an eye or vision problem, and statistics around the globe are similar.
The global hyaluronic acid market research study has showcased that the industry is characterized by a moderate degree of innovation. While there have been significant advancements in understanding hyaluronic acid and its underlying causes, treatment options remain primarily focused on symptom management rather than addressing the condition's root cause.
Several market players, such as Allergan, Sanofi, Genzyme Corporation, and Anika Therapeutics, Inc., are involved in merger and acquisition activities. Through M&A activity, these companies expand their geographic reach and enter new territories, driving the hyaluronic acid market revenue.
Companies are actively investing substantial resources in clinical trials and regulatory submissions to obtain regulatory approval for pipeline products. This results in increasing the cost of developing novel hyaluronic acid products.
The hyaluronic acid market is witnessing product expansion through the development of serum and mask skincare solutions. These advancements attract youth, and product consumers have increased in recent years. The presence of a strong product pipeline is expected to provide opportunities for market expansion over the forecast period. Key players are strengthening their strong portfolio of hyaluronic acid-based dermatological products by adding highly innovative products to the pipeline.
Dermal fillers segment led the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 39.9% in 2023, Dermal fillers, also known as soft tissue fillers, are made up of synthetically derived or natural materials like hyaluronic acid that injected through the skin to obtain smoother and wrinkle-free skin. Dermal filling is a minimally invasive procedure widely used as an anti-aging therapy. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are most used in aesthetic surgical procedures to reduce eye wrinkles, nasolabial folds, scar remediation, dark circles, and rejuvenation. The U.S. FDA has approved dermal fillers for various applications, including correction and restoration of lipoatrophy in HIV-infected people. Other applications of dermal fillers include reducing acne scars and correcting the cheek. The hyaluronic acid fillers market shows promising growth prospects and offers opportunity to grow for players operating in the market.
Osteoarthritis is anticipated to witness the significant market growth over the forecast period.Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis, which is degenerative, painful, and tends to worsen with time. Hyaluronic acid injections are found to be effective in treating knee pain caused by OA in patients who were previously, unsuccessfully, treated with painkillers (e.g., ibuprofen) and other therapies. Hyaluronic acid acts as a shock absorber or a cushion and lubricates the joints, thus helping in proper functioning. These injections are also referred to as “viscosupplements,” as they provide thick fluid for the lubrication of joints. Euflexxa, Hyalgan, Orthovisc, Monovisc, Supartz, Synvisc, and Synvisc-One are some of the brands of hyaluronic acid that have been approved for treating knee OA. Hyaluronic acid injection market is expected to growth owing to the rising demand forosteoarthritis treatment.
North America dominated the market and accounted for 43.4% share in 2023. Rising incidence of osteoarthritis and ophthalmic diseases, such as dry eye and cataracts, are among the factors responsible for the region's largest share in the market.According to CDC, 1 in 4 of the U.S. adults suffers from some form of arthritis. Furthermore, favorable government reimbursement policies and growing demand for facial esthetics are among the factors propelling hyaluronic acid market growth in North America.
The U.S. is accounted for the largest share in terms of revenue in North America in 2023. Increasing popularity of dermal fillers, especially among women with a desire to look attractive, is a key factor expected to boost market growth in the U.S. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), over 3.41 million soft tissue filler procedures were performed in 2020; out of which, hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers were used in 2.61 million procedures.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth in the hyaluronic acid market owing to the increasing population and growing incidences of osteoarthritis and ophthalmic diseases especially in China and India. The National Programme for Control of Blindness and Visual Impairment (NPCBVI), a 100% central government-sponsored scheme, was launched by the government to decrease the frequency of blindness to 0.3% by 2020. Under this scheme a total of 83,44,824 surgical procedures were conducted beating for the FY 2022-23.
Japan held the largest market share in Asia-Pacific in 2023. Rising awareness among Japanese population regarding the benefits of hyaluronic acid on skin and treatment of various diseases is boosting market growth in Japan.

Market Segmentation
The global geriatric population is rapidly rising. As per the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, the global populace among the age group of 65 years and above is predicted to rise from 7% in 2000 to 16% in 2050. As per the Department of Economic & Social Affairs of the UN, the population over 80 years of age is anticipated to grow three times by 2050, reaching 425 million. As per the U.S. Census Bureau, at present, 54 million adults in the U.S. are 65 or above, making it 16% of the total population. Furthermore, Asia Pacific also holds the highest aging population record. According to the recent-most statistics on the aging population, Japan has the highest aging population across the world with 29% of the nation’s population aged 65 & above. A related issue of this will be an upsurge in the prevalence of obesity, skin aging, and osteoarthritis which is predicted to substantially boost the demand for hyaluronic acid (HA) products over the forecast period.
Growing consciousness about antiaging products is predicted to upsurge the demand for antiaging cosmetic and aesthetic treatments. Due to their distinctive viscoelastic and moisturizing properties, paired with decreased toxicity levels, hyaluronic acid products are straightly impacted by surging demand for negligibly invasive antiaging solutions. At present, a huge number of people, specifically women, are worried about aesthetics and looking younger, increasing their general mindfulness about the antiaging section. The demand for hyaluronic acid-infused products as dermal fillers and the treatment of vesicoureteral reflux is predicted to rise, owing to the high cognizance and marginally invasive nature. In North America, demand for such products is on a higher side. According to a report by Allergan, 50% of men & women in Canada are aware of dermal fillers & prefer them as a better aesthetic choice in comparison with surgical methods. In emerging countries, people are well-informed due to improving access to information and accessibility to products.
There are few negative results concerned to the usage of hyaluronic acid cycles. In most of the HA injections, the complications are mild and transient. This involves bruising, bleeding, redness, and overcorrection of itching, wrinkles, and inflammation. Nevertheless, in few cases, severe negative problems, such as cerebrovascular accidents, necrosis, and vision loss are likely to arise. Other adversarial event that can arise owing to the usage of HA-based dermal fillers is the formation of nodules and lumps. For instance, high pressure is placed on the syringe while injecting, it can lead to the formation of large boluses of fillers. Furthermore, as per an article issued in the American Academy of Ophthalmology, HA dermal injections to the tear trough may result in malar edema in nearly 11% of cases. The repetitive pain-bearing linked with numerous injection cycles is also a deterrent. Due to this, numerous people are indecisive regarding dermal filler injections.

A three-pronged approach was followed for deducing the hyaluronic acid market estimates and forecasts. The process has three steps: information procurement, analysis, and validation. The whole process is cyclical, and steps repeat until the estimates are validated. The three steps are explained in detail below:
Information procurement: Information procurement is one of the most extensive and important stages in our research process, and quality data is critical for accurate analysis. We followed a multi-channel data collection process for hyaluronic acid market to gather the most reliable and current information possible.
Analysis: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilized different methods of hyaluronic acid market data depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.
Market Research Efforts: Bottom-up Approach for estimating and forecasting demand size and opportunity, top-down Approach for new product forecasting and penetration, and combined approach of both Bottom-up and Top-down for full coverage analysis.
Value-Chain-Based Sizing & Forecasting: Supply-side estimates for understanding potential revenue through competitive benchmarking, forecasting, and penetration modeling.
Demand-side estimates for identifying parent and ancillary markets, segment modeling, and heuristic forecasting.
Qualitative Functional Deployment (QFD) Modelling for market share assessment.
Market formulation and validation: We mine the data collected to establish baselines for forecasting, identify trends and opportunities, gain insight into consumer demographics and drivers, and so much more. We utilize different methods of data analysis depending on the type of information we’re trying to uncover in our research.
Market Formulation: This step involves the finalization of market numbers. This step on an internal level is designed to manage outputs from the Data Analysis step.
Data Normalization: The final market estimates and forecasts are then aligned and sent to industry experts, in-panel quality control managers for validation.
This step also entails the finalization of the report scope and data representation pattern.
Validation: The process entails multiple levels of validation. All these steps run in parallel, and the study is forwarded for publishing only if all three levels render validated results.
The hyaluronic acid market was categorized into two segments, namely application (Dermal fillers, Osteoarthritis, Ophthalmic, Vesicoureteral reflux), region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa).
The hyaluronic acid market was segmented into applications and regions. The demand at a segment level was deduced using a funnel method. Concepts like the TAM, SAM, SOM, etc., were put into practice to understand the demand. We at GVR deploy three methods to deduce market estimates and determine forecasts. These methods are explained below:
Demand estimation of each product across countries/regions summed up to from the total market.
Variable analysis for demand forecast.
Demand estimation via analyzing paid database, and company financials either via annual reports or paid database.
Primary interviews for data revalidation and insight collection.
Used extensively for new product forecasting or analyzing penetration levels.
Tool used invoice product flow and penetration models Use of regression multi-variant analysis for forecasting Involves extensive use of paid and public databases.
Primary interviews and vendor-based primary research for variable impact analysis.
The hyaluronic acid market was analyzed at a regional level. The globe was divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa, keeping in focus variables like consumption patterns, export-import regulations, consumer expectations, etc. These regions were further divided into twenty-three countries, namely, the U.S.; Canada; the UK; Germany; France; Italy; Spain; Denmark; Sweden; Norway; Japan; China; India; Australia; Thailand; South Korea; Brazil; Mexico; Argentina; South Africa; Saudi Arabia; UAE; Kuwait.
All three above-mentioned market research methodologies were applied to arrive at regional-level conclusions. The regions were then summed up to form the global market.
