The laceration closure devices market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The laceration closure devices market has seen strong growth in recent years, expected to rise from $9.64 billion in 2024 to $10.39 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 7.8%.
The growth is driven by increasing disability rates, a rise in infectious and non-communicable diseases, more surgical procedures, higher rates of accidents and sports-related injuries, and an overall increase in healthcare expenditure.
The laceration closure devices market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The laceration closure devices market is expected to grow to $13.84 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 7.4%.
Growth is driven by the increasing use of technology in plastic surgeries, rising surgical procedures, and the demand for skin closure devices. Trends include advancements in technology, strategic mergers and acquisitions, and the expansion of healthcare infrastructure.
The growth in surgical procedures is expected to drive the expansion of the laceration closure device market. As surgical operations rise, due to aging populations, advancements in medical technology, and higher demand for elective surgeries, the efficiency of laceration closure devices in closing wounds and minimizing trauma contributes to their increased usage. For example, in September 2023, breast augmentation was predicted to remain the most common surgical procedure among women, with 2.2 million surgeries in 2022, a 29% increase from 2021.

Key players in the laceration closure devices market are channeling their efforts into creating innovative solutions, such as next-generation microsurgical sutures, to increase precision, accelerate healing, and enhance patient results. These next-generation sutures are advanced, ultra-thin sutures crafted for meticulous, minimally invasive surgical practices, with improved biocompatibility, durability, and less tissue damage for superior healing and speedy recovery. An example of this is the launch of Onatec Ophthalmic Microsurgical Sutures by Corza Medical GmbH, a US-based manufacturer, in October 2024 at the American Academy of Ophthalmology Conference. These sutures, formulated from robust tempered stainless steel, are engineered for resilience and precision, designed to promote tissue penetration and minimize trauma during eye operations. Their advanced fabrication process guarantees optimal suture geometries for stitching in nuanced and compact spaces.
