Market Insights and Analyst View:

The reduction of stored body fat is called fat reduction. Fat reduction and weight reduction are different. Fat reduction is focused exclusively on losing the fat content in the body. Losing fat enhances fitness levels and strength and improves work performance in daily life. The different fat reduction procedures include Abdominoplasty, Liposuction, Radiofrequency, Ultrasound, Cryolipolysis, and Mesotherapy.

Factors that positively affect the body fat reduction market are the growing prevalence of obesity across the globe, which boosts the need for body fat reduction. Also, the rising customer preference for noninvasive procedures, the growing favorable government policies, and programs for obesity reduction are driving investment in the body fat reduction market.

Growth Drivers:

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 experience 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 body fat reduction is increasing as it helps in weight reduction. According to The Aesthetic Society, the fat reduction procedure count was 217,277 and 137,119 in 2021 and 2020, respectively. Furthermore, 491,098 Liposuction procedures and 242,939 Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) procedures were carried out in 2021. Therefore, the increasing prevalence of obesity and rising awareness about its consequences have increased the demand for body fat reduction procedures, driving the body fat reduction market.

Body Fat Reduction Market by Gender – 2022 and 2030

Based on gender, the body fat reduction market is segmented into female and male. The female segment held the largest market share in 2022 and is anticipated to grow at the fastest rate during 2022-2030. Women have more body fat than men because of many different reasons. One is biological. For women of average size, a body fat content of 25%  compared to men have 15%.

According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 605,669 non-surgical fat reduction procedures were carried out in women, and 125,311 non-surgical fat reduction procedures were carried out in men. The female segment is likely to experience growth due to an increasing fat percentage in women yearly and growing awareness about the aesthetic appearance of body images.

Based on the service provider, the body fat reduction market is segmented into hospitals & clinics, medical spas, and others. The hospitals & clinics segment held the largest market share in 2022. However, the medical spas segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during 2022-2030. In hospitals, various body fat reduction surgeries are performed on people suffering from obesity. Hospitals perform fat reduction designed for each patient based on weight and health condition. In addition to the surgical process, hospitals strongly emphasize patient counseling, dietary management, and regular follow-up to address all weight-related issues. Cosmetic treatments are known to have a significant impact on the confidence and self-image of the people seeking those treatments, and this factor will continue to boost the popularity of various body fat reduction procedures, such as liposuction and abdominoplasty, in the coming years. Moreover, the procedures can easily be performed in the clinics If only a tiny amount of fat is to be removed. Thus, the abovementioned factors are likely to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
