The global alopecia
market is expected to reach over USD 11.8 Billion by 2024 according to a
new report published by Grand View Research, Inc. The increased healthcare
expenditure and the resultant augmentation of healthcare facilities, globally,
are the key drivers of the alopecia treatment market.
Additionally, the increasing
awareness amongst individuals pertaining to the availability of the treatment
options can be attributed to the favorable initiatives taken by organizations
such as the National Alopecia Areata Foundation (NAAF) and the American Hair
Loss Association. The increasing R&D investments pertaining to the
development of novel therapeutics for the treatment of alopecia is expected to
boost the usage rates.
International conferences are
held by the NAAF for individuals suffering from alopecia, irrespective of their
age, furthermore, NAAF also promotes research by bringing together scientists
from all over the world. The 31st National Conference of NAAF will
be held in Washington DC from 14th July to 16th July,
2016.
The FDA approval of the Janus
kinase inhibitors (JAK) drugs that stimulate the growth of hair follicles with
minimal side effects is further expected to boost the alopecia treatment
market. The Children Alopecia Project by AHLA is dedicated towards making
investments in Children Support Groups, which provide funding for children who
cannot afford to attend the NAAF Conference and promote research and
development activities in alopecia treatment for children.
Bald Truth is a radio program
that is involved in spreading awareness about the different types of alopecia
affecting people and about the varied products used for the effective treatment
of alopecia that are currently available in the market. Rapunzel Project is
