The 2011 global market for professional skin care products saw a second consecutive year encouraging growth. While the overall tendency suggests a continued recovery of the market following the 2009 dip, subtle trends behind the figures paint a more undecided picture. While European and the U.S. markets show mixed performances, the professional skin care market in Asia is generating much excitement with its particularly high growth.
Through this presentation Kline will explore trends and drivers fueling the growth within this market, by providing an overview of professional skincare product consumption (for skin care brands sold through spas, salons, beauty institutes, and physicians’ offices), focusing on key trends, sales of products by skin care concerns and brands’ market shares.
