Global viscosupplementation market is estimated to be valued at USD 3.84 Bn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.8% during the forecast period (2024-2031). Viscosupplementation is an orthopedic treatment method used to manage osteoarthritis knee pain. It involves injecting hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan, into the knee joint. Hyaluronic acid acts as a lubricant and shock absorber in the joints. It replenishes levels in the joint that diminish with osteoarthritis. This helps reduce pain and improve mobility by supplementing the viscous nature of the synovial fluid in knees affected by osteoarthritis. Viscosupplementation therapy is a non-surgical treatment option that provides relief from knee osteoarthritis symptoms for extended periods of time.
Market Dynamics:
The global viscosupplementation market is driven by the rising geriatric population which is more prone to develop osteoarthritis and the associated joint pains. As per estimates, over 330 million people currently suffer from osteoarthritis globally. This is projected to increase substantially in the coming years. Moreover, growing awareness about advanced non-invasive treatment alternatives and favorable reimbursement policies for viscosupplementation procedures are boosting the market. However, the market growth can be restrained by the preference for alternative treatment methods like dietary supplements and limitations in the efficacy and duration of pain relief provided by hyaluronic acid injections. The integration of 3D printing and robotic technologies to develop patient-specific hyaluronic acid formulations provides lucrative opportunities in this market.
