Global Medical Laser Systems Market– Impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic
The World Health Organization (WHO) designated the illness caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which first appeared in Wuhan (province of Hubei, China) in the last months of 2019 as "coronavirus disease 2019" or COVID-19. This virus spread quickly and had a serious negative impact on the economies, social behaviors, and healthcare of every country in the world.
COVID-19 affected the economy in three main ways: by directly affecting production and demand, by creating disruptions in distribution channels, and through its financial impact on firms and financial markets. Due to the lockdown, several countries such as India, China, Brazil, and others faced problems with regard to the transportation of drugs from one place to another.
COVID-19 had a negative impact on the global medical laser systems market. All elective procedures were stopped because of the COVID-19 epidemic. Patients who had appointments for elective surgery for chronic illnesses and opthalmology have had their procedures postponed because to the Covid-19 outbreak. Women have been forced to endure discomfort and inadequate short-term treatments as a result of limits on access to elective therapies, which were put in place either to reduce viral cross-transmission or to get the hospital infrastructure ready to help infected patients. The COVID-19 epidemic abruptly ended traditional care procedures and presented dental professionals with an unanticipated task. Dental workers were at the highest risk of getting and spreading the virus due to its high level of contagiousness and its ability to spread through the air and respiratory droplets. For instance, in June 2020, an article published in the Journal of Lasers in Medical Science by Springer Nature explained the effect of Covid-19 on elective surgeries and the decrease in the number of surgeries. While the use of lasers in the treatment for surgeries is decreased along with the decrease in the surgeries due to the restriction of covid-19.
Global Medical Laser Systems Market: Key Developments
In July 2021, Alma Lasers, a global innovator of laser, light-based, radiofrequency, and ultrasound solutions for the aesthetic and surgical markets announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance of Alma Hybrid, the first laser platform to include an ablative 10,600 nm (CO2) laser and a non-ablative 1570 nm laser for skin resurfacing. Alma Lasers Hybrid offers physicians a comprehensive solution to utilize each best-in-class laser independently or for the very first time, customize the treatment pattern by combining both wavelengths.
In August 2020, LASEROPTEK, a developer and manufacturer of world-class laser devices for aesthetic and medical dermatology, announced the launch of its PALLAS Solid-State 311nm UVB laser in the United States. The efficacious and safe PALLAS laser is FDA-cleared for the treatment of vitiligo, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and leukoderma. PALLAS is the fifth LASEROPTEK laser device to receive FDA clearance in the U.S. for dermatological treatments and brings to the U.S. market the world's first solid-state UVB laser delivering efficacious and safer treatment for a variety of skin conditions that collectively affect close to a billion people worldwide
