Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market Drivers

Surging Applications Of Dermatoscopes Are Projected To Drive The Growth Of Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market:

Dermoscopy, also termed dermatoscopy, epiluminescence microscopy, or skin surface microscopy is a non-invasive, in-vivo technique that has conventionally been useful for the assessment of suspicious skin lesions. It can assist in recognizing lesions and differentiating melanocytic lesions from dysplastic lesions, melanomas, or non-melanoma skin cancers like basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma. Furthermore, over the past numerous years, the application of dermoscopy has extended to involve use for the diagnosis of dermatological ailments inclusive of inflammatory dermatosis, pigmentary dermatosis, infectious dermatosis, and disorders of the hair, scalp, and nails. As per Dermengine findings show that dermoscopy diagnoses are up to 35% more accurate than clinical diagnoses without the application of a dermatoscope. Definitely, this is a percentage that has a measurable difference in patient health outcomes together with the early detection of severe skin conditions. Further, research goes on to show that practicing dermatoscopy permits professionals to be able to detect 92% of melanomas instantly. Dermatoscopes functionally simulate a magnifying lens, with the additional characteristics of much higher magnification, and an adjustable inbuilt illuminating system. A hand lens, even with in-built illumination, cannot permit visualization beyond the surface of the skin owing to the reflection and scattering of light from the stratum corneum. Dermatoscopes can evaluate structures to the depth of the reticular dermis, and report images for future comparison. The basic principle of dermoscopy is transillumination of a lesion in order to investigate it with high magnification to visualize subtle characteristics. Light incident on a surface such as the skin can be reflected, refracted, diffracted, and/or absorbed. The physical characteristics of the skin influence these phenomena. The most novel generation of dermatoscopes involves inbuilt crossed-polarizers, which filter out scattered light from the periphery, reduce glare, and permit visualization of substratal structures without the requirement of a linkage fluid. The surging applications of dermatoscopes are therefore fuelling the growth of the Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Heightening Applications Of Topical Corticosteroids In Dermatology Are Expected To Boost The Growth Of The Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market:

Topical corticosteroids have become imperative in the treatment of different dermatoses. Hydrocortisone was the earliest compound. Alterations in the basic structure produced in vivo activity and thus distinct topically active compounds were discovered. Apart from the Stoughton vasoconstrictor assay, numerous other techniques are utilized for potency evaluation of topical corticosteroids. Topical corticosteroids are restricted based on the potency and action of these molecules. The well-recognized indications are for ailments like psoriasis, restricted areas of vitiligo, eczema, atopic dermatitis, phimosis, acute radiation dermatitis, lichen planus, lichen simplex chronicus, discoid lupus erythematosus, and lichen sclerosis. They are efficient for conditions involving hyper-proliferation, immunological, and inflammatory characteristics. As per the Indian Journal of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprology (IJDVL), it has been recommended that superpotent topical corticosteroids like clobetasol and halobetasol propionate not be utilized for a duration of more than 14 days with the total dose not surpassing 50 gms per week for halobetasol and 60 gms per week for clobetasol. The heightening applications of topical corticosteroids in dermatology are therefore driving the growth of the Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market during the forecast period 2022-2027.

Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market Challenges

Challenges Of Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Are Hampering The Growth Of The Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market:

While the Infra-red (IR) spectrum has been found to be advantageous for dermatological diagnostic uses, the basic disadvantage of IR imaging is the finite depth of penetration, normally confined to 2-3 mm. For skin affected by hypertrophic scarring, sclerosis, or scabs resulting from wounds, this shallow range presents a challenge. Presently, up to 70% of patients develop hypertrophic scars succeeding burns. Deitch and colleagues discovered that burn wounds healing within 3 weeks had a reduced risk of hypertrophic scarring, while wounds taking more than 3 weeks had a soaring risk for developing a pathologic, hypertrophic scar. A more current investigation of greater than 500 pediatric scald burn patients verified the time to healing as a powerful predictor of hypertrophic scarring, with 21 to 25 days recognized as the critical time frame. Furthermore, native fluorophores like oxygenated hemoglobin, which absorbs IR, further influence the imaging range unfavorably. Additionally, while the IR imaging methods offer insight into the structural details of the skin; the dearth of cellular and molecular-level specificity restricts the application of these methods for preliminary diagnosis of skin ailments. Further tests are still essential for an in-depth, all-inclusive assessment of ailment symptoms. Patient safety can be jeopardized when using or taking dermatologic therapy owing to medical error, patient noncompliance, unfavorable impacts, or medication interactions. It is thus of utmost significance to reduce, and if possible avert these hazards. These issues are thus hampering the growth of the Dermatological Diagnostics & Therapeutics Market.
