Increasing Prevalence of Breast Cancer Leading Global Breast Prosthesis Market towards a CAGR of 9.3%

22 Jan 2019

The breast prosthesis market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 9.3% for the forecast period. Growth is largely due to the rising prevalence of breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most frequent type of cancer in women and the second most prevalent worldwide, according to the World Cancer Research Fund. In 2018, around 2 million new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed, with European countries accounting for the majority of cases. A breast prosthesis is an artificial breast shape that replaces the shape of the breast that was removed. The vast majority of breast prostheses are comprised of soft silicone gel enclosed in a thin film. Many women who have had breast cancer surgery but have not had them rebuilt wear breast prosthesis.

The market has been divided into segments based on type, material, shape, application, and geography. The breast prosthesis market is segmented into round, asymmetrical, swimming prosthesis, partial prosthesis, and others based on shape. Demand for round and swimming prosthesis is predicted to increase during the forecast period. Lightweight prosthesis are now available for women who are concerned about their weight. Materials such as silicone and cotton foam are effective in warmer regions. The market is segmented into material segments such as silicon, saline, foam, and others. Silicone breast prosthesis dominated the global market due to advantages such as natural feel, ease of use, and availability for a wide range of shapes and activities. Furthermore, the silicone breast prosthesis's long-term performance and affordable cost will boost the market over the forecast period.
