Hyaluronic Acid Consumption Survey (2017-2021) in Comparison to Market Growth Forecasts (2022-2032)

Hyaluronic acid plays a crucial role in our body and provides lubrication between connective tissues and bones.

The increasing geriatric population is also expected to supplement the consumption of hyaluronic acid capsules across the world.

Hyaluronic acid demand rose at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2017 to 2021 and accounted for a net worth of US$ 10.71 billion at the end of 2021.

Increasing popularity of the dermal filler properties of hyaluronic acid is expected to drive the hyaluronic acid products market across the forecast period. Hyaluronic acid serums, hyaluronic acid moisturizers, hyaluronic acid masks, hyaluronic acid powder, and hyaluronic acid sheet masks are some prominent products that are expected to see high demand owing to the rising focus on personal care.

Increasing disposable income, rising incidence of osteoarthritis, and rising preference of cosmetic brands to use hyaluronic acid in manufacturing are expected to be prominent hyaluronic acid market trends over the coming years.

Shipments of hyaluronic acid are anticipated to witness an increase at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2022 to 2032.
