As per the recent survey, the high rate of satisfaction, long lasting and personalized results, and easy and safe procedures are augmenting the popularity of breast augmentation among women across the globe to enhance the appearance of their breasts. Breast surgeries that utilize breast implants are crucial in increasing breast size, enhancing appearance, and helping with asymmetry among others. Thus, owing to these attributes the market is expected to witness a substantial growth in the coming years.
 

Moreover, the implementation of new techniques in surgical procedures, including minimally invasive surgery, has helped increase the market growth due to lower recovery times, reduced risk of complications, and better cosmetic outcomes. The ability to perform accurate and precise breast augmentation and reconstruction surgery has improved due to advances in surgical tools and knowledge. This has led to improved outcomes, high patient satisfaction, and rising numbers of women seeking breast implants.
 

Breast implants are defined as medical devices that are surgically implanted under the chest muscle or breast tissue to either enhance the size of the breast or to replace breast tissue which has been excised due to cancer or trauma. The two types of breast implants used are silicone gel-filled and saline-filled breast implants.
 

Breast Implants Market Trends

Growing prevalence of breast cancer across the globe is anticipated to proliferate market growth in the coming years. Breast reconstruction is widely performed after mastectomy surgery to treat or prevent breast cancer.
 

  • Breast reconstruction procedures are aimed to reshape breasts and rebuild damaged or missing tissue. This procedure employs breast implants that are inserted underneath the skin or chest muscle following the mastectomy. Surgeons are increasingly using breast implants in the same surgery as mastectomy.
     
  • As per the Global Cancer Observatory (GCO), in 2020, 15,491 new breast cancer cases were diagnoses in South Africa.  Moreover, according to the estimates From GLOBOCAN 2020, around 186,598 breast cancer cases were reported in the MEA region. These statistics are highlighting the augmented demand for breast implants across several countries worldwide.
     
  • Moreover, the implementation of breast cancer therapeutics and screening policies and programs to limit the incidence and mortality rates associated with the disease are expected to promote the breast implant market growth in the foreseeable future. Owing to improved clinical outcomes, many regions such as European and North America are initiating population-based screening campaigns for breast cancer mammography.
     
  • For instance, in the UK, over 2 million women undergo breast cancer screening every year. Thus, owing to the above variables rising prevalence of breast cancer and growing breast imaging for cancer detection is set to increase the demand for breast implants that will prove beneficial for business growth.
     

Trump Administration Tariffs

  • Trump's administration reciprocal tariffs on medical devices may impact the breast implants market in U.S. The increased tariffs negatively impacts both sellers and buyers in medical devices industry.

  • While U.S. based manufacturers, Mentor and Sientra, may have a smoother operation because of their domestic production, they can still face the risk of price increases for imported implants which will inflate consumer prices for the surgeries.
     
  • Moreover, the Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) alongside other organizations have expressed their discontent over the imposed tariffs arguing that these policies could create increased business costs and complications in supply chains.
     
  • With these negative economic factors, the breast implants industry will likely undergo alterations in the supply and demand currents for cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries.

  • Moreover, continuous advancements and development in products used in these procedures are expected to aid in maintaining steady growth and continue to expand the business in the coming years.
     

Based on implant texture, the breast implants market is categorized into smooth and textured. The textured breast implants segment held the significant market share of around 38.6% in 2024 and is forecasted to witness a similar trend during the analysis period.
 

  • This market share is primarily attributed to an increase in the preference for textured breast implants in breast surgery procedures across the regions significantly. Some of the factors that are propelling the segmental growth are lower rate of capsular contracture, less risk of displacement, and lower rates of infection. 
     
  • A textured surface helps the implant adhere to the breast tissue, thereby preventing rotation of these implants. The slight roughness keeps implants in their initial positions and prevents movement within the breast pocket created by the surgeon. Many plastic surgeons prefer textured implants owing to the textured implants shell that is stiffer and firmer and hence holds its shape better than a smooth implant.
     
  • Further, these implants are widely preferred by surgeons in women with adequate breast tissue and good breast skin tone to conceal the implants. Thus, the advantages offered by textured breast implants are set to accelerate the segmental growth during the estimation timeframe.
     

Breast Implants Market, By End Use (2024)

Based on end use, the breast implants market is categorized into hospitals, clinics, and other end users. The hospitals segment held around 49.4% market share in 2024 and is projected to reach around USD 2.8 billion by 2034.
 

  • The use of novel breast implants in hospital settings offering enhanced outcomes is estimated to surge the patient preference for hospitals. Increasing admissions for breast augmentation and growing breast cancer screening initiatives coupled with the availability of highly skilled healthcare professionals are some other attributes that are propelling the growth of the hospital segment positively.
     
  • Furthermore, the increasing number of plastic surgeons in developing regions with robust healthcare infrastructure is anticipated to positively impact segment growth. Thus, accessibility to better treatment and diagnosis coupled with the rising breast surgery procedures is estimated to boost patient visits to hospitals, thereby propelling the segment revenue.
