SUPPLIER MARKET FOR U.S. MINIMALLY INVASIVE AESTHETIC PRODUCTS POISED TO GROW FROM $1.5 BILLION IN 2007 TO NEARLY $2.5 BILLION BY 2016

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.-August 26 2008--(BUSINESS WIRE)—According to The U.S. Minimally Invasive Aesthetics Market, a new industry report by Dymedex Consulting, distributed exclusively by Life Science Intelligence, suppliers to the minimally invasive aesthetic retail market, specifically laser equipment and injectable filler suppliers, will experience very different growth dynamics.  In-depth analysis of retail laser utilization and the current installed base suggests that the laser market may undergo a significant shift in growth trajectory. 

According to the report, it will be critical for laser equipment suppliers to understand how these dynamics will impact the sources and rates of growth in the market in order to drive growth and succeed.  Injectable fillers & Botox® will generally track with the retail market, but are also being challenged by advanced laser technology that may shift limited client spending in favor of laser procedures.  These conclusions and many other critical findings are analyzed in detail in this new 2008 industry report.

Major suppliers who participate in this market include: Allergan, Medicis, Q-Med, BioForm, Candela, Laserscope, Cutera, LUMENIS, Palomar, and ICN, among others.
