PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Lines between dermatologicals and dermocosmetics are blurring
The outlook for dermatologicals in South Africa is positive over the forecast period. However, the lines between dermatologicals and dermocosmetics (under skin care) are blurring.
Vaginal antifungals remain taboo to purchase in South Africa
Certain medical conditions in South Africa are considered taboo, which discourages some consumers from purchasing the most appropriate dermatological to treat them. A case in point is the embarrassment attached to purchasing vaginal antifungals for many female consumers.
Visits to a dermatologist unaffordable for many consumers
Dermatologists are seen as a luxury service by most South Africans unless the condition is at a critical point and needs immediate assistance or is being covered by medical insurance. As a result, many skin ailments are left untreated or are treated using inappropriate products.
