Acne vulgaris (commonly called acne) is a common skin condition, affecting 85-100% of people at some time during their lives. It is caused by changes in the pilosebaceous units, skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland. It is characterized by noninflammatory follicular papules or comedones and by inflammatory papules, pustules, and nodules in its more severe forms. Acne vulgaris affects the areas of skin with the densest population of sebaceous follicles; these areas include the face, the upper part of the chest, and the back. Severe acne is inflammatory, but acne can also manifest in noninflammatory forms. Acne lesions are commonly referred to as pimples, blemishes, spots, zits, or acne.

There's been a gap in products marketed to adult women--little or nothing was available to address their acne needs, and as a result, sales have lagged. "No one was looking to target the 30- to 40-year-olds," said Lee Feldman, vice president of sales for Advanced Research Labs. [http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m3374/is_2_21/ai_53748892  Source]

 +
* In this report we have presented Acne Market details for following countries.
 +
 
 +
=== Causes of Acne ===
 +
 
 +
Acne is a common occurrence at puberty. With the increased production of sex hormones, the sebaceous glands become hyperactive.
 +
Androgen and progesterone are responsible for the hyperplasia of the oil glands.
 +
The usual premenstrual flare-up is explained by some observers as occurring during the period when the normal androgen-estrogen balance in the blood is altered in favor of androgen. Hence hormonal imbalance is held responsible for causing acne.
 +
Psychogenic stresses particularly the habit of picking pimples, makes them worse.
 +
 
 +
Besides seborrhoeic diathesis and hormonal imbalance, other factors which aggravate acne are:
 +
 
 +
* a diet rich in fats and starches;
 +
* intestinal stasis, especially constipation;
 +
* a sedentary life;
 +
* excessive use of greasy cosmetics, pomade, detergents and mechanical rubbing
 +
* Heavy or oily make up
 +
* Over abrasive cleansing       
 +
* Diet high in nutritious food can also help aggravate acne.
 +

 +
 
 +
=== Acne Treatment ===
 +
 
 +
'''Medical Treatment'''
 +
 
 +
Medical treatment is suggested only in cases of chronic or severe acne and should be taken from the dermatologist.
 +
 
 +
To outline the drug treatment, it aims chiefly to:
 +
 
 +
* Cut down the bacteria in the hair follicles and on the skin surface.
 +
* Open the hair follicles by removal of the blackheads.
 +
* Cut down the acne inflammations.
 +
 
 +
'''Local Drug Treatments'''
 +
 
 +
Benzoyl Peroxide preparations available as gels and lotions have become very popular in the treatment of acne. Cream "Ultra Clearasil" is a very potent Benzoyl preparation. One of the main action points of Benzoyl Peroxide is to kill bacteria. It releases oxygen which helps in killing aerobic bacteria.
 +
 
 +
The sulphur drug preparations, available as creams, gels and lotions, are extremely effective in treating acne. Like Benzoyl Peroxide, sulphur is committed to killing bacteria. Sulphur is a disinfectant and used in skin treatments for eczema, etc.
 +
 
 +
Tetracycline usually has no side-effects and hence is the safest drug. However, in some uncommon cases, it causes bilousness, indigestion, vaginal thrush or rash.

== '''USA market study''' ==
  
[[Image:TrendsDrinks.JPG|center|589*277px|thumb|Sports & Energy Drinks in Australia - Market Trends]]
+
===Historic Sales===
  
 +
* The Acne Treatment Manufacturing OTC industry has maintained strong growth during the past five years. As per IBIS World estimates from 2007 to 2012, revenue has grown steady, and it is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 2.4% to $2.3 billion.
  
* '''On-tap dispensing in bars'''
+
* Because acne-prone individuals consider treatment products a necessary expense, revenue continued to rise during the recession, though growth did slow as consumers switched to more inexpensive products.  
** Energy drinks manufacturers have introduced on-tap dispensing in bars and pubs across Australia
+
** This is aimed at growing the presence and awareness of these products in such venues
+
** This initiative has attracted much media attention as there was some opposition to the sale of caffeine drinks as alcoholic mixes, and a ban on the distribution of energy drinks on tap was proposed
+
** However, there is a lack medical evidence of its harmful effects
+
* '''Sports Drinks Market Growth'''
+
** Sports drinks recorded good sales growth of 3% in 2011 due to significant new launches and innovation
+
** Off-trade volume sales increased by 3% in 2011, while off-trade current value sales rose by 5
+
** Functional claims, which are key to sales growth in sports drinks, are becoming more specific and segmented
+
** Brands play an important role in sports drinks as their efficacy claims are perceived to be more credible
+
** This complements the appeal to consumers who are looking for specific benefits, for example hydration pre-workout (sustenance) or post-workout (rehydrate)
+
* '''Sports vs. Energy Drinks'''
+
** Sports drinks enjoys a broader consumer base in Australia than energy drinks
+
** The demand for energy drinks is very much confined to teenagers and young adults
+
** Sports drinks, whilst targeted at sports-orientated and active people, enjoys a broader base because of the inherent thirst-quenching properties of such products
+
* '''Impulse Purchase'''
+
** Consumers typically purchase energy drinks on impulse during late afternoons and evenings
+
** Hence convenience stores is an important channel for the sale of energy drinks in Australia
+
** Marketers invest in strong point-of-sale merchandising to win convenience and impulse sales
+
** Coca-Cola Amatil has invested heavily in various point-of-sale materials for each of its many formats, especially in support of its new Powerade Fuel<nowiki>+</nowiki> launch
+
* '''Entry Barrier in Functional Drinks'''
+
** Private label had not been introduced in functional drinks in Australia by the end of the review period
+
** Entry barriers remain high due as product efficacy is the key attribute of functional drinks and consumers demand brands which perform as claimed
+
** Branding, product claims and sports sponsorship are key elements needed to succeed in functional drinks
+
  
 +
* Increasing prevalence of adult-onset and persistent acne conditions has given rise to new, targeted products and an expanded consumer base, another factor that has aided revenue growth during the period.
  
==Sport & Energy Drinks - Market Prospects==
+
* In 2012, industry revenue is expected to maintain its growth, gaining 2.7% during the year, due to modest improvements in per capita disposable income.
* As the lifestyles of Australian consumers become more hectic, the demand for beverages which provide rapid energy boosts and effective sustenance will increase
+
   
* Energy drinks is set to remain the most convenient and readily available answer to these demands
+
* In Australia, energy drinks is set to record strong volume and value sales growth over the forecast period as manufacturers invest in marketing, product and pack size innovation and flavor enhancement
+
*  The growth in sports drinks is expected to be slower as it is a more mature type than energy drinks
+
* In addition, numerous substitutes are available to consumers of sports drinks, such as functional bottled water, fruit/vegetable juice and RTD tea
+
* Two key threats to forecast growth in energy drinks are: the introduction of private label products; and the association of significant adverse health effects with the excessive consumption of energy drinks, by a credible health authority
+
* As for sports drinks, a potential threat to growth lies in the introduction of drinks with higher benefits in adjacent categories like concentrates
+
* Entry barriers will remain high for private label sports and energy drinks in the near future. The technology behind the manufacture of these products and the equity of leading brands create strong barriers for retailers to penetrate

===Consumer Target Group & Product Categorization===
  
==Energy Drinks - Regulations==
+
'''Consumer Target Group'''
* Energy drinks in Australia are one of the most stringently regulated categories of all the world markets
+
* Energy drinks are classified as a food and as such are regulated under the Australia and New Zealand Food Standards Code under Standard 2.6.4 Formulated Caffeinated Beverages (FCBs).
+
* FCBs are non-alcoholic beverages which must contain certain levels of caffeine and this range is between 145mg/L and 320mg/L
+
* This is comparable to the caffeine levels found in coffee which typically vary from 60-120mg per cup of coffee (approx 240mg-480mg/L)
+
* Energy drinks must comply with labelling provisions of the Code with regards to contents disclosure, recommended daily usage and advisory statements that the product is not suitable for children, pregnant or lactating women. This is in addition to compliance with the relevant sections of the Competition and Consumer Act (2010)
+
* These Australian regulations compare to the USA and Europe where there are no limits to the levels of caffeine that can be added to beverages. US regulation does not require any specific labeling of energy drinks and European Union legislation stipulates that products containing more than 150mg/L of caffeine must bear the advisory statement <nowiki>’</nowiki>high caffeine content<nowiki>’</nowiki> followed by the amount of caffeine contained in mg/100mL
+
  
 +

===Market Facts===
 +
 
 +
* Acne treatments most dynamic with 20% current value growth in 2007
 +
 
 +
* Acne treatments were the best performing product area in 2007, achieving 20% current value growth over the previous year. This was chiefly due to the re- launch of leading brand Mentholatum Acnes from Rohto Pharmaceutical Co Ltd in 2006. The brand was re -launched with a more effective formulation and grew share dynamically in 2007 as a result.
 +
 
 +
* Acne treatments are also expected to see strong growth during the forecast period, with constant value growth of 42%. Growth will be supported by further new product development. The growing number of busy and affluent young workers suffering from acne will make this product area highly attractive to players during the forecast period, with these consumers generally willing to pay more for products that are convenient and enhance their appearance. New launches are therefore expected to focus on swiftly absorbed formulations that also claim to improve skin condition.

Revision as of 04:00, 17 October 2013

Objective

A global understanding of markets, products, and distribution channels related to the acne product market. Our overall focus is on the OTC market, not prescription.

Introduction

Definition

Acne vulgaris (commonly called acne) is a common skin condition, affecting 85-100% of people at some time during their lives. It is caused by changes in the pilosebaceous units, skin structures consisting of a hair follicle and its associated sebaceous gland. It is characterized by noninflammatory follicular papules or comedones and by inflammatory papules, pustules, and nodules in its more severe forms. Acne vulgaris affects the areas of skin with the densest population of sebaceous follicles; these areas include the face, the upper part of the chest, and the back. Severe acne is inflammatory, but acne can also manifest in noninflammatory forms. Acne lesions are commonly referred to as pimples, blemishes, spots, zits, or acne. Source

There's been a gap in products marketed to adult women--little or nothing was available to address their acne needs, and as a result, sales have lagged. "No one was looking to target the 30- to 40-year-olds," said Lee Feldman, vice president of sales for Advanced Research Labs. Source

  • In this report we have presented Acne Market details for following countries.

Causes of Acne

Acne is a common occurrence at puberty. With the increased production of sex hormones, the sebaceous glands become hyperactive. Androgen and progesterone are responsible for the hyperplasia of the oil glands. The usual premenstrual flare-up is explained by some observers as occurring during the period when the normal androgen-estrogen balance in the blood is altered in favor of androgen. Hence hormonal imbalance is held responsible for causing acne. Psychogenic stresses particularly the habit of picking pimples, makes them worse.

Besides seborrhoeic diathesis and hormonal imbalance, other factors which aggravate acne are:

  • a diet rich in fats and starches;
  • intestinal stasis, especially constipation;
  • a sedentary life;
  • excessive use of greasy cosmetics, pomade, detergents and mechanical rubbing
  • Heavy or oily make up
  • Over abrasive cleansing
  • Diet high in nutritious food can also help aggravate acne.

Acne Types

There are various types of acne and they are:-

  • Acne Rosacea
  • Acne Cosmetica
  • Acne Vulgaris
  • Acne Fulminans
  • Acne Keloidalis Nuchae
  • Acne Chloracne
  • Acne Medicamentosa

Acne Treatment

Medical Treatment

Medical treatment is suggested only in cases of chronic or severe acne and should be taken from the dermatologist.

To outline the drug treatment, it aims chiefly to:

  • Cut down the bacteria in the hair follicles and on the skin surface.
  • Open the hair follicles by removal of the blackheads.
  • Cut down the acne inflammations.

Local Drug Treatments

Benzoyl Peroxide preparations available as gels and lotions have become very popular in the treatment of acne. Cream "Ultra Clearasil" is a very potent Benzoyl preparation. One of the main action points of Benzoyl Peroxide is to kill bacteria. It releases oxygen which helps in killing aerobic bacteria.

The sulphur drug preparations, available as creams, gels and lotions, are extremely effective in treating acne. Like Benzoyl Peroxide, sulphur is committed to killing bacteria. Sulphur is a disinfectant and used in skin treatments for eczema, etc.

Tetracycline usually has no side-effects and hence is the safest drug. However, in some uncommon cases, it causes bilousness, indigestion, vaginal thrush or rash.

USA market study

Historic Sales

  • The Acne Treatment Manufacturing OTC industry has maintained strong growth during the past five years. As per IBIS World estimates from 2007 to 2012, revenue has grown steady, and it is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 2.4% to $2.3 billion.
  • Because acne-prone individuals consider treatment products a necessary expense, revenue continued to rise during the recession, though growth did slow as consumers switched to more inexpensive products.
  • Increasing prevalence of adult-onset and persistent acne conditions has given rise to new, targeted products and an expanded consumer base, another factor that has aided revenue growth during the period.
  • In 2012, industry revenue is expected to maintain its growth, gaining 2.7% during the year, due to modest improvements in per capita disposable income.


Source:IBIS World,[2]

Industry Forecast

  • From 2012 to 2017, industry revenue is expected to go up an annualized rate of 3.1% to $2.7 billion from current level of $2.3 billion.
  • Improving economic conditions is likely to drive the market, as greater disposable income growth allows consumers to spend on higher-priced over-the-counter (OTC) items.

Major Players in Acne Space

  • As per IBIS World estimates the top three industry players (Johnson & Johnson, Guthy-Renker and Reckitt-Benckiser) hold a combined market share of about 68.1%, in 2012. The rest of the market is characterized by a large number of small and medium-size businesses.
  • J&J (Neutrogena, Clean & Clear, Aveeno, Ambi) commanded over 28.8% of anti-acne preparation sales in 2012. J&J’s closest rival was Guthy Renker,(Proactiv Solutions) which had a 24.6% share followed by Reckitt Benckiser at 14.7%.

Japan Market Study

Market Facts

  • Acne treatments most dynamic with 20% current value growth in 2007
  • Acne treatments were the best performing product area in 2007, achieving 20% current value growth over the previous year. This was chiefly due to the re- launch of leading brand Mentholatum Acnes from Rohto Pharmaceutical Co Ltd in 2006. The brand was re -launched with a more effective formulation and grew share dynamically in 2007 as a result.
  • Acne treatments are also expected to see strong growth during the forecast period, with constant value growth of 42%. Growth will be supported by further new product development. The growing number of busy and affluent young workers suffering from acne will make this product area highly attractive to players during the forecast period, with these consumers generally willing to pay more for products that are convenient and enhance their appearance. New launches are therefore expected to focus on swiftly absorbed formulations that also claim to improve skin condition.
