Aesthetics, dermatology and lasers covers energy-based devices, fillers and skin treatment equipment sold mainly to clinics. Many products sit at the boundary between medical device and cosmetic, and classification varies by market. The segment is the smallest in the Index because registries tag it inconsistently.

By role

RoleEstablishmentsShareWhat it means
Importer7243%Named as importer in a registry: EUDAMED importer, FDA initial importer, or a Gulf import licence.
Distributor148%Holds a distribution licence or is listed as distributor (Health Canada MDEL, SFDA, Oman MOH).
Registration holder6438%Holds device licences or registrations in its own name (Health Canada MDALL licence holder).
Manufacturer15692%Registered as a manufacturer with an address in this market, including foreign registrations.
Exporter2112%Registered with the US FDA as an exporter of devices made for export.

An establishment can hold several roles, so the shares add to more than 100%.

Who holds the registration in the United States

In the United States the manufacturer registers its own establishment with the FDA and lists its devices; there is no local holder requirement. A US importer must also register as an initial importer, and the 510(k) or PMA stays in the manufacturer's name, so a distributor can be replaced without losing market access.

This is the general rule, not legal advice. The registration clause in the first distributor contract decides who controls the market later. The Next 10 Markets report covers who holds the registration in each of your ten markets.
