PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Economic recovery and population growth to sustain demand
An improving economy is expected to strengthen volume growth in dermatologicals over the forecast period, as consumers regain spending power and resume regular purchases of essential skin treatments. The category’s performance during the review period was constrained by affordability challenges, and greater macroeconomic stability will allow consumers to invest more confidently in dermatological care.
Innovation and influencer marketing shape category development
Economic recovery will also encourage both local and international players to resume innovation efforts, which were constrained in recent years by currency volatility and high import costs. Growth in the wider skincare industry and social media influence will support this shift, as consumers increasingly seek safe, effective, and natural products.
Wellness awareness will moderate growth but drive product reformulation
Growing health and wellness awareness may temper category growth slightly, as more consumers adopt preventive skincare routines or return to traditional herbal treatments. The renewed interest in natural remedies - amplified during the COVID-19 pandemic - may encourage some consumers to substitute conventional dermatologicals with herbal alternatives, particularly for minor ailments.
