Hyaluronic acid, fat injections, and implants are some of the most common products used to perform this procedure. Some of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved lip fillers are Restylane L, Belotero Balance, and Juvederm Vollure.
Under the European Regulations, from May 2020, all fillers will be regulated as medical devices, which will help in clearer supervision and traceability of the product, according to the Aesthetics Journal. The key factors boosting the growth of the market include stressful lifestyles leading to unhealthy skin, rising disposable income, increasing screen time, consumer awareness, acceptance regarding cosmetic procedures, affordability, and ease of minimally invasive procedures. Technological advancements, procedure safety, and issues such as body dissatisfaction among millennials are anticipated to further drive the demand for these procedures.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, in 2019, Americans had USD 16.65 trillion in Disposable Personal Income (DPI) while per capita personal DPI was USD 43,828.

In 2019, lip implants contributed the highest revenue share of over 20% in 2019, followed by fat grafting which held the second highest revenue share. The fillers Segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, due to rising consumer preference for minimally invasive procedures that deliver instant and long term results.

Hyaluronic acid is naturally produced by the body and when injected artificially, it is well accepted within the system; hence, there is a negligible chance of risks and side effects of treatment.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in U.S., 2.6 million filler procedures were performed in 2016. This can be attributed to increasing R&D, the highest per capita disposable income, rising adoption of new technology, and rising consumer awareness. The increasing need for perfect appearance and confidence through physical characteristics is anticipated to contribute to regional growth. The introduction and development of insurance schemes for various cosmetic treatments is a pivotal growth driver.
Asia Pacific is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 10.8% over the forecast period, attributed to rising patient awareness regarding the availability and benefits of lip fillers, rising focus on aesthetic appeal, and marketing strategies implemented by the key players. Increasing disposable income along with an increased focus on physical appearance is anticipated to further fuel the regional market growth in the forthcoming years.
