[Research Report] The bariatric surgeries market size is projected to reach US$ 27,647.38 million by 2030 from US$ 8,546.66 million in 2022; the market is estimated to record a CAGR of 15.8% from 2022 to 2030.

Market Insights and Analyst View:

The basic principle of bariatric surgery is restricting food intake and reducing food absorption in the intestines and stomach. Bariatric surgery is done when exercise and diet fail to reduce weight or when a patient has serious health problems because of the patient's weight. Bariatric surgery procedures include sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, gastric band, and duodenal switch. These procedures have proven results in treating class III obesity. They also help normalize a patient's metabolism, including blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar. Factors such as the increasing prevalence of obesity and growing demand for minimally invasive surgeries are driving the bariatric surgeries market growth. On the other hand, the stringent regulatory policies and increase in safety concerns hinder the market growth.

Growth Drivers:

Increasing Prevalence of Obesity Propels Bariatric Surgeries Market Growth

Excess amount of fat accumulation in the body is known as obesity, which can cause various health problems. When the body mass index is 25 or above, it is considered obesity. Obesity is one of the leading causes of various health conditions, such as cardiovascular disorders and diabetes. Changes in food habits and sedentary lifestyles have increased the prevalence of obesity on a global level. A large percentage of the population consuming high-calorie, high-fat food with limited physical activity has increased obesity rates. According to the World Health Organization, in 2022, ~1 billion people worldwide were obese, including 39 million children, 340 million adolescents, and 650 million adults. There are various factors, such as genetic, behavioral, metabolic, and hormonal, that influence body weight and can cause obesity. In some cases, obesity can be caused due to medical reasons such as hypothyroidism, Cushing syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome. The increasing prevalence of obesity leads to various health concerns. Most of the obese population experiences depression, shame, and guilt about their social isolation, disability, and lower work achievement, which affects their quality of life. According to the National Council of Aging (NCOA) 2021 report, adults with excess weight had a 55% higher risk of developing depression in their lifetime than those who did not suffer from obesity.

To overcome the abovementioned conditions and increase awareness among large populations about the consequences of obesity, the demand for bariatric surgery is increasing as it helps in weight reduction. According to the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, there were a total of 262,893 bariatric surgeries performed in 2021 as compared to 198,651 surgeries in 2020 in the US. Therefore, increasing prevalence of obesity and rising awareness about its consequences have increased the demand for bariatric surgeries, driving the bariatric surgery devices market

Segmental Analysis:

The bariatric surgeries market, by type, is segmented into adjustable gastric bands (AGB), sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS), and others. In 2022, the sleeve gastrectomy segment held the largest market share, and the gastric bypass segment is estimated to register the fastest CAGR during 2022–2030. In sleeve gastrectomy, the stomach is divided and stapled vertically by removing more than 85% of stomach, forming a banana-shaped pouch or tube limiting the amount of food ingested and absorbed by the body. In this surgery, most of the stomach is removed, lowering levels of the hormone ghrelin, which is responsible for appetite, along with limiting food intake and its absorption. Risks of sleeve gastrectomy include heartburn, stomach ulcers, gastritis, injury to the intestines, stomach, or other organs during surgery, and vomiting. Also, poor nutrition and scarring inside the belly could lead to a future blockage in the bowel.

Based on end user, the bariatric surgeries market is segmented into hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers. In 2022, the hospitals segment held a larger market share, and the ambulatory surgical centers segment is estimated to register a faster CAGR during 2022–2030. An ambulatory surgical center (ASC) is a healthcare facility that allows patients to have same-day surgery, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery or sleeve gastrectomy, duodenal switch surgery, laparoscopic gastric banding (Lap-Band), and non-surgical gastric balloon. Healthy Life Bariatrics is an accredited ambulatory surgical center that focuses on sanitation, cleanliness, safety, and personalized care. Atlanta General and Bariatric Surgery Center (AGBSC) is located in Georgia, across from Emory Hospital.
