Actinic Keratosis Treatment Market To Reach $8.93 Billion By 2030

Actinic Keratosis Treatment Market Growth & Trends

The global actinic keratosis treatment market size is expected to reach USD 8.93 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 4.1% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to witness growth opportunities owing to factors such as the wide availability of actinic keratosis therapeutics, rising awareness about the disease, and the rise in AK treatment. Moreover, the increasing prevalence of actinic keratosis and the rising geriatric population across the globe are expected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.

Invasive squamous cell carcinoma may develop from AK when it becomes malignant (iSCC). Despite the fact that there are a number of potential causes for iSCC, AK is one of the most frequent ones. Additionally, basal cell carcinoma and non-melanoma skin cancer could result from AK. As a result, the demand for AK products across sales channels is being driven by the early diagnosis and treatment of actinic keratosis as a preventive strategy for comorbidities.

In addition, future pipeline medications and the increased use of combination therapy are key market drivers. For instance, Almirall, S.A. has Klisyri (extended label) in phase III of R&D. Furthermore, a rise in the acceptance and commercialization of innovative drugs is another factor that is predicted to fuel market growth. Moreover, increased R&D activities are expected to accelerate the approval of novel drugs used in the treatment of actinic keratosis, hence, propelling the growth over the forecast period.

Key players are adopting strategic initiatives such as product launches, partnerships, and expansion strategies to increase their market share across the globe. For instance, in June 2022, BIOFRONTERA AG announced that its license and marketing authorization holder Louis Widmer SA based in Switzerland has received an extension of its marketing authorization for the management of actinic keratosis in the trunk, extremities, and neck with Ameluz. Moreover, in July 2020, BIOFRONTERA AG announced that it has signed an agreement with Galenica AB for the marketing of BF-RhodoLED and Ameluz in  Norway, Finland,  Norway, and Iceland.
