This segment benefits from technological advancements in hyaluronic acid cross-linking, enabling longer-lasting effects. Three and five injection types remain relevant for patients requiring gradual dosing, particularly in cases of moderate osteoarthritis, but they hold smaller shares due to logistical challenges in outpatient settings.
The market is segmented based on application into: Hospitals
Clinics
Others Hospitals dominate as primary sites for viscosupplementation procedures, supported by specialized orthopedic departments and access to imaging diagnostics. This segment accounts for the majority of injections administered, driven by the need for comprehensive patient care in complex cases. Clinics are gaining traction for routine treatments, offering cost-effective alternatives, while the 'others' category includes ambulatory surgical centers and rehabilitation facilities, where demand is growing with the push for outpatient care.
