The rare dermatological disease treatment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.08 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The projected growth in the forecast period is supported by rising demand for personalized medicine, greater adoption of digital health technologies, increased investment in specialty drugs, expansion of telemedicine services, and a stronger focus on patient-centric care. Key trends in this period include technological advancements, development of targeted biologics, growth in research and development investment, innovations in small molecule inhibitors, and progress in advanced therapeutics.
The increasing prevalence of rare dermatological conditions is expected to drive the growth of the rare dermatological disease treatment market. Disorders such as epidermolysis bullosa, pemphigus vulgaris, and cutaneous lupus erythematosus affect a small portion of the population but demand specialized care and targeted therapies. Advances in genetic testing, heightened disease awareness, and earlier diagnoses have led to a growing number of cases being identified globally. This recognition has created a rising demand for innovative treatments such as gene therapies, advanced biologics, and supportive care solutions, which are aimed at managing symptoms, enhancing wound healing, and improving patient outcomes. For example, in January 2025, the CDC reported that Vyjuvek (beremagene geperpavec-svdt), a redosable gene therapy for dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, showed substantial wound closure in clinical trials, underlining the potential of innovative therapies. As a result, the growing number of rare skin conditions is significantly contributing to the growth of the rare dermatological disease treatment market.
Leading companies in the rare dermatological disease treatment market are focusing on the development of advanced gene therapies, such as redosable gene therapy, to improve patient outcomes, simplify treatment regimens, and enhance quality of life. This type of therapy delivers functional COL7A1 genes directly to the affected skin, allowing repeated, non-invasive applications that restore protein function, promote wound healing, and expedite tissue repair. For instance, in May 2023, Krystal Biotech, a US-based biotechnology company, introduced Vyjuvek (beremagene geperpavec-svdt) for the treatment of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. In clinical studies, the therapy achieved a 65% complete wound closure rate at 24 weeks compared to 26% with a placebo. Vyjuvek offers a once-weekly, non-invasive treatment option for specific wounds, reducing the need for surgery. It also provides a non-invasive clinic-administered solution while requiring specialized cold-chain storage to maintain its effectiveness.
In March 2025, Scinai Immunotherapeutics, an Israel-based provider of immunology biologics and contract development services, acquired Pincell srl for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allows Scinai to expand its immunology portfolio and strengthen its position in the rare dermatological space. Through this deal, Scinai gained access to PC111, a monoclonal antibody in development for conditions such as pemphigus, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and toxic epidermal necrolysis. Pincell srl, an Italy-based company, specializes in biologic therapies for severe and rare dermatological disorders.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sudden escalation of U.S. tariffs and the consequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are severely impacting the healthcare sector, particularly in the supply of critical medical devices, diagnostic equipment, and pharmaceuticals. Hospitals and healthcare providers are facing higher costs for imported surgical instruments, imaging equipment, and consumables such as syringes and catheters, many of which have limited domestic alternatives. These increased costs are straining healthcare budgets, leading some providers to delay equipment upgrades or pass on expenses to patients. Additionally, tariffs on raw materials and components are disrupting the production of essential drugs and devices, causing supply chain bottlenecks. In response, the industry is diversifying sourcing strategies, boosting local manufacturing where possible, and advocating for tariff exemptions on life-saving medical products.
Rare dermatological disease treatment refers to medical approaches aimed at diagnosing and managing uncommon skin disorders. These treatments are specialized due to the rarity and complexity of the conditions. They include targeted therapies, supportive care, and continuous monitoring to control symptoms and maintain skin health.
The primary indication types in rare dermatological disease treatment include systemic sclerosis, epidermolysis bullosa, pemphigus vulgaris, and cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Systemic sclerosis is a rare condition that can cause hardening of the skin and connective tissues. In some cases, it is visible on the face, hands, feet, and other areas as the skin thickens and firms. Treatments for systemic sclerosis focus on managing skin fibrosis and vascular complications and include corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, anti-inflammatory agents, and other therapies, which are distributed through hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies. Technologies applied in these treatments include gene therapy, stem cell therapy, and nanotechnology, which are also used for epidermolysis bullosa, ichthyosis, psoriasis, and other rare skin conditions.
