Market dynamics

5 factors across 3 forces
01

Rising Demand for Non-invasive Procedures

A higher preference for minimally invasive procedures is positively impacting the cryotherapy market. Unlike traditional surgeries, minimally invasive procedures do not require large incisions on the body, thus reducing hospital stays and associated costs. Also, non-invasive cosmetic treatments are effective alternatives to popular plastic surgery procedures. For instance, as per The International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS) (U.S.) August 2024 report, there was an 11.2% increase in surgical and non-surgical procedures performed worldwide in 2022. Along with cosmetic treatments, cryotherapy has expanded its applications in the treatment of bone cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, and prostate cancer. Furthermore, the convenience offered by cryotherapy in cosmetic treatments has shown positive results with no redness or downtime of the skin. Cryo facials help brighten and tighten the skin by increasing blood circulation. This demand for cosmetic procedures and the growing beauty and healthcare industries are raising the demand for non-invasive procedures, driving the cryotherapy market growth.

02

Increasing Prevalence of Cancer and Other Chronic Diseases

Extreme cold conditions destroy cancer cells in cryotherapy or cryoablation. It can be used to destroy abnormal cells on the cervix, basal cell skin cancer, kidney cancer, lung cancer, and liver cancer, among others. For instance, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, 330,000 new cases of skin cancer patients were diagnosed in 2022, and almost 60,000 people died due to the disease around the world. Cryotherapy is used for destroying tumours on the skin by using liquid nitrogen on the tumour area, and for tumours inside the skin, the cryoprobe is used to freeze the tumour tissue.

According to the World Health Organization Report of February 2025, lung cancer is the most commonly occurring cancer worldwide, with around 2.5 million new cases registered worldwide in 2024, along with 1.5 million cases of prostate cancer. The low cost associated with the use of cryotherapy in cancer treatment, the increasing application areas of cryotherapy in cancer, and its increasing use by healthcare professionals in cancer treatment are expected to drive the growth of the market.

By Therapy Type

  • The Partial Body Cryotherapy Segment to Dominate the Cryotherapy Market
  • The whole-body cryotherapy segment is expected to account for the largest share of over 40.9% of the cryotherapy market.
  • Whole-body cryotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure.
  • The large market share of this segment is attributed to a high preference for minimally invasive surgeries owing to their advantages, such as shorter recovery time, less hospital stay, and low risk of infection.
  • Additionally, the market players are launching new products to meet the growing demand for minimally invasive devices.
  • For instance, in April 2025, AtriCure, Inc. (U.S.) launched the cryoSPHERE+ cryoablation probe, which reduces freeze times by up to 25% compared to the cryoSHPERE device.
02

By Device Type

  • Cryosurgery Devices Segment to Dominate the Cryotherapy Market
  • The cryosurgery devices segment is expected to account for the largest share of over 38.9% of the cryotherapy market.
  • Cryosurgery devices are further categorized into cryoprobes and cryoConsole.
  • The large market share of this segment is attributed to the rising prevalence of cancer, the use of cryoprobes and cryoConsoles in localized cryotherapy to freeze tissues, and the high demand for cryotherapy consoles and probes in fitness centers and sports clubs.
  • The increasing demand for cryotherapy for multiple applications is driving the demand for cryosurgery devices.
03

By Substance Involved

  • The liquid nitrogen-based cryotherapy segment is expected to account for the largest share of the cryotherapy market.
  • The large market share of this segment is attributed to the advantages offered by liquid nitrogen, such as its lowest boiling point as compared to other cryogenic agents used in cryotherapy.
  • Liquid nitrogen has a temperature between -3460 and -3200F, which helps in the instant freezing of cells.
  • Moreover, the growing applications of liquid nitrogen in a wide range of eye cryotherapies are contributing to the largest share of the nitrogen-based cryotherapy segment.
04

By Application

  • The surgical applications segment is expected to account for the largest share of the cryotherapy market.

Geographic analysis

01

North America

Largest share
U.S. and Canada

In 2025, North America is expected to account for the largest share of over 41.6% of the cryotherapy market. North America's large market share is attributed to the high number of cancer patients and sports injury cases in the region, increasing demand for innovative treatments, and increasing technological advancements. According to Johns Hopkins University, about 30 million teens and children in the U.S. participate in some form of organized sports, and more than 3.5 million injuries occur each year. The increasing prevalence of sports injuries is propelling the demand for cryotherapy sessions, which contributes to the growth of the cryotherapy market in this region.
