Deep Partial-Thickness Thermal Burns Market Report 2026

The deep partial-thickness thermal burns market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.28 billion in 2025 to $1.39 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing incidence of thermal burn injuries, expansion of specialized burn treatment centers, availability of surgical wound management techniques, growth in emergency care services, rising awareness of advanced burn treatment options.

The deep partial-thickness thermal burns market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.9 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of regenerative medicine in burn care, rising investments in biologic wound therapies, expansion of home-based burn care services, growing focus on functional recovery outcomes, increasing use of advanced surgical reconstruction techniques. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of advanced wound care therapies, rising use of biologic dressings and skin substitutes, growing integration of multidisciplinary burn care protocols, expansion of surgical intervention techniques, enhanced focus on scar reduction outcomes.

The rising prevalence of burn injuries is expected to drive the growth of the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market going forward. Burn injuries occur when a person’s skin is damaged by heat, flames, hot objects, electricity, or chemicals. The increasing incidence of burn cases is primarily attributed to the greater use of cooking appliances and open flames at home, which leads to accidental fires and contact with hot surfaces, particularly in densely populated or unsafe living environments. Deep partial-thickness thermal burns are treated using advanced interventions such as specialized wound dressings, skin graft materials, and regenerative therapies. These treatments improve healing outcomes, reduce complications, support faster recovery, and help minimize scarring and long-term functional impairments. For example, in November 2023, according to a report by the East London NHS Foundation Trust, a UK-based organization, approximately 250,000 people in the UK suffer burn injuries annually. Of these, around 175,000 visit A&E departments, and roughly 16,000 require hospital admission for specialized burn care. Therefore, the rising prevalence of burn injuries is driving the growth of the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market.

Major companies in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns treatment market are focusing on advanced technologies such as non-surgical enzymatic eschar removal to enhance outcomes for adult and pediatric patients. Non-surgical enzymatic eschar removal is a method that rapidly and selectively dissolves burn eschar through topically applied biological agents, eliminating the need for conventional surgical debridement. For instance, in August 2024, Vericel Corporation, a US-based biopharmaceutical company, received FDA approval for a pediatric indication for NexoBrid (anacaulase-bcdb) for eschar removal in pediatric patients with deep partial-thickness and full-thickness thermal burns. NexoBrid is contraindicated in individuals with known allergies to pineapple, bromelain, papain, or any other component of the product due to the risk of hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis. It should be used cautiously in patients on anticoagulant therapy because of potential bleeding risks.

In April 2024, Bharat Serums and Vaccines (BSV), an India-based pharmaceutical company, partnered with MediWound to introduce and distribute NexoBrid in India, thereby advancing the standard of care in burn wound management. MediWound Ltd., an Israel-based biopharmaceutical company, specializes in next-generation enzymatic therapies designed to promote non-surgical tissue repair, including treatment for deep partial-thickness and full-thickness thermal burns.

Major companies operating in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market are Smith & Nephew plc, Coloplast A/S, Convatec Group plc, Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corporation, Mölnlycke Health Care AB, Organogenesis Holdings Inc., MiMedx Group Inc., Vericel Corporation, AlloSource Inc., PolyNovo Limited, AVITA Medical Inc., MediWound Ltd., Stratatech Corporation, RenovaCare Inc., Aroa Biosurgery Limited, 3M Company, Anika Therapeutics Inc., B Braun SE, Osiris Therapeutics Inc., Celularity Inc., Amnio Technology LLC, Tissue Regenix Group plc, CUTISS AG, Tides Medical Inc.

North America was the largest region in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market in 2025. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the forecast period. The regions covered in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market report are Asia-Pacific, South East Asia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, Africa. The countries covered in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market report are Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Taiwan, Russia, South Korea, UK, USA, Canada, Italy, Spain.

Tariffs are impacting the deep partial-thickness thermal burns market by increasing costs of imported wound dressings, biologic materials, medical devices, surgical instruments, and advanced therapy equipment. Hospitals and specialty burn centers in North America and Europe are most affected due to reliance on imported wound care products, while Asia-Pacific faces pricing pressure on advanced treatment supplies. These tariffs are raising treatment costs and affecting procurement budgets. However, they are also encouraging domestic production of wound care products, regional manufacturing of medical devices, and innovation in cost-effective burn treatment solutions.

The deep partial-thickness thermal burns market research report is one of a series of new reports that provides deep partial-thickness thermal burns market statistics, including deep partial-thickness thermal burns industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a deep partial-thickness thermal burns market share, detailed deep partial-thickness thermal burns market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the deep partial-thickness thermal burns industry. This deep partial-thickness thermal burns market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.

Deep partial-thickness thermal burns are injuries that destroy the entire epidermis and extend deeply into the dermis, reaching the reticular layer while sparing some skin appendages, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. These burns appear mottled red or white, exhibit reduced or absent capillary refill, and may be less painful due to nerve damage. Healing is slow, often taking more than three weeks, and significant scarring typically occurs if surgical intervention is not performed.

The primary types of treatment in deep partial-thickness thermal burns include initial wound care, physical and occupational therapy, and others. Initial wound care involves immediate measures to minimize tissue damage and prevent infection. These treatments are applied to various burn types, including fire burns, scald burns, and burns from hot objects. They are distributed through multiple channels, such as direct tendering, hospital pharmacies, online pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and other distribution methods, and are used by a range of end users, including hospitals, specialty clinics, ambulatory surgical centers, home healthcare providers, and others.
