Technavios market research analyst predicts the global acne drugs market to grow steadily at a CAGR of approximately 3% during the forecast period. The occurrence of acne due to lifestyle changes is the primary driver for the market. Sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy food habits lead to hormonal problems, which trigger the development of acne. Lack of sleep, emotional and work-related stress, smoking, drug abuse, and alcohol consumption are major triggers for the occurrence of acne among teenagers and adults.

The rising awareness of acne and the current and upcoming treatments is expected to drive the acne drugs market through the forecast period. Women particularly, play a crucial role in this market as the demand generated by them influences the market growth considerably.
