North America OTC Hyaluronic Acid Industry

The North America OTC hyaluronic acid (HA) market is projected to reach USD 10.29 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.9% over the forecast period, according to a report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is being driven by shifting lifestyle habits, including rising obesity rates due to sedentary behaviors, increased fast-food consumption, and alcohol use—especially among the younger population.

Key Growth Drivers

Expanding Orthopedic Applications

Orthopedic use of HA is poised to become the most lucrative segment due to:

The aging population, particularly individuals over 60, who are increasingly affected by joint disorders such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Growing hospitalization rates due to arthritis, paired with greater awareness among healthcare providers of HA’s physicochemical properties.

An expanding portfolio of HA-based products designed to cater specifically to joint health and mobility support.

Rising Demand in Dermatology

HA’s role in stimulating collagen production and supporting skin structure is fueling its popularity in topical applications such as anti-wrinkle creams and serums.

Products leveraging HA are gaining traction due to their superior dermal penetration compared to alternatives like collagen.

The growing segment of women aged 20–65 years, especially those between 45–65 years (approximately 27% of the U.S. female population), are primary consumers of anti-aging and skincare products.

Increased Consumer Awareness

The OTC nature of HA supplements and skincare products has made them more accessible, while marketing efforts and rising awareness of HA’s benefits—such as improved hydration, elasticity, and joint lubrication—have expanded its appeal across demographics.

Market Challenges

Product saturation in topical skincare may increase competition.

Regulatory scrutiny of health claims made by OTC products may limit aggressive marketing.
