The ultrasonic scalpel market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The ultrasonic scalpel market has experienced substantial growth in recent years. It is projected to increase from $2.76 billion in 2024 to $2.95 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%.
This growth can be attributed to an increase in surgical procedures, higher healthcare spending and government support, a rise in minimally invasive surgeries, better surgical outcomes, and growing awareness and training.
The ultrasonic scalpel market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The ultrasonic scalpel market is projected to grow to $3.79 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 6.5%.
This growth is due to factors such as the increasing incidence of cancer, rising demand for aesthetic surgeries, expanding hospital infrastructures, and broader insurance coverage. Trends include advancements in robotic surgery, growth in silicone liners, and the integration of advanced technologies in scalpel design.
The ultrasonic scalpel market is anticipated to witness significant growth due to the increasing preference for minimally invasive surgical procedures. These procedures, which involve small incisions or entry through natural body openings, are gaining prominence due to their numerous advantages including less traumatic experience for the patient, decreased hospitalization period, lowered infection likelihood, enhanced aesthetic outcomes, technological progress, greater surgeon proficiency, and patient preference. Ultrasonic scalpels facilitate these procedures by offering precision in cutting, reduced blood loss, quicker recovery, and minimized risk of complications, thereby enhancing patient results. For example, as reported by the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, around 83% of all medical procedures in 2023 were minimally invasive, leaving the remaining 17% as standard surgical procedures. Moreover, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons stated that the count of cosmetic minimally invasive procedures rose from 23.7 million in 2022 to 25.4 million in 2023. Hence, the growing demand for minimally invasive surgical procedures is stimulating the expansion of the ultrasonic scalpel market.
