Driving Factors

Increasing prevalence of chronic lesions such as diabetic foot ulcers, venous foot ulcers, and pressure wounds in South Korea. The country's rapidly aging population and high diabetes are increasing the demand for advanced wound care biology. Additionally, the government and hospital initiative to improve regenerative medicine and advanced treatment is pushing biological solutions into mainstream healthcare. Skin options and growth factors are increasing the preference for undertaking treatments, which reduces the time of treatment compared to traditional dressing, supporting further market expansion. Strong R&D investment by South Korean Biotech firms and partnerships with reginal wound care companies are also promoting innovation and access.

Restraining Factors

One major obstacle is still the high treatment costs of biologic products in comparison to traditional dressings. Adoption is further hampered by advanced wound biologics' limited reimbursement coverage, particularly in outpatient or long-term care settings.

Market Segmentation

The South Korea wound care biologics market share is classified by product type and application.

• The skin segment held the largest market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.

The South Korea wound care biologics market is segmented by product type into skin substitutes, growth factors, collagen-based products, and others. Among these, the skin segment held the largest share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. The segmental expansion can be attributed to their capacity to effectively cover and shield wounds, accelerating the healing process.  For large or chronic wounds, these products are essential because they are made to mimic the characteristics of the skin and provide both temporary and permanent coverage. The development of increasingly complex, biocompatible skin substitutes has been facilitated by advancements in tissue engineering and biomaterials, which have increased patient and healthcare professional acceptance of them.

• The chronic wounds segment held the largest market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period.

The South Korea wound care biologics market is segmented by application into chronic wounds, acute wounds, surgical wounds, and others. Among these, the chronic wounds segment held the largest market share in 2024 and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Chronic wounds, which necessitate long-term and specialized care, have become more common as a result of the aging population and the high prevalence of chronic diseases like diabetes and obesity. Because biologics can speed up healing, lower the risk of infection, and improve patient outcomes, they are now the go-to treatment for chronic wounds.
