Description

Wound Gel Market Summary

The global wound gel market size was valued at USD 6.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 9.68 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 5.37% from 2025 to 2033. The demand for wound gel is rising owing to the increasing number of surgical cases and the growing burden of wounds.

According to the data published by the University of Hawaiʻi in February 2025, chronic wounds affect about 6.5 million individuals in the U.S. each year, contributing to an estimated USD 25 billion in healthcare costs. Such a high burden of wounds and growing healthcare expenditure globally is anticipated to drive the demand for wound gel in the coming years.

The rising number of surgical procedures worldwide is a significant driver for expanding the wound gels market. Surgical interventions often result in acute wounds that require effective post-operative care to minimize infection risk and promote faster healing. Advanced wound care products, particularly wound gels, are increasingly preferred due to their ability to maintain a moist wound environment, support autolytic debridement, and accelerate tissue regeneration. According to data published in the BMC Surgery journal in 2025, approximately 313 million surgical procedures are performed globally annually. This substantial volume underscores the growing demand for reliable and effective wound care solutions, reinforcing the critical role of wound gels in the post-surgical healing process.

In addition to traditional medical surgeries, the growing demand for cosmetic and plastic surgeries is expected to contribute significantly to the market's expansion.According to the 2023 Plastic Surgery Statistics Report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, there was a 5% increase in overall cosmetic procedures from 2022 to 2023, as illustrated in the graph below:

Wound gels play a vital role in post-operative care following cosmetic procedures. These gels are designed to manage incisions and minor surgical wounds by promoting moist wound healing, which helps reduce the risk of scarring, minimizes the chance of infection, and accelerates tissue regeneration. As a result, wound gels are becoming essential in both in-clinic post-surgical protocols and at-home aftercare routines within aesthetic medicine. With the high volume of cosmetic surgeries, the demand for wound gels is expected to rise accordingly.
