The average wait time to see the dermatologist in the U.S. is around 35 to 40 days.

To tackle this teledermatology is often considered and it lets dermatologists examine the skin condition by guiding general physicians and these cases advanced diagnostic devices such next generation dermatoscopes plays a significant role. The next generation dermatoscopes lets magnify the moles on the skin and see the structural changes which cannot be seen by naked eyes.

The manufacturers in the next generation dermatoscopes market are largely focusing on the developing technologically advanced dermatoscopes to capture critical structural changes in the mole and other changes in the skin epidermis.

The primary motive of the using dermatoscopes for skin examination to diagnose diseases such as sexually transmitted diseases, skin cancer, etc. and conditions such as acne, hair fall, etc. The use of next generation dermatoscopes for the diagnosis of above-mentioned skin related condition without need of surgical skin intervention. As per CDC, the incidence of melanoma in the U.S. is estimated to be around 91,270 in 2018 and it is increasing at a significant rate.

An increasing prevalence of skin cancer i.e. melanoma expected to drive the growth of next generation dermatoscopes market, because changing size, shape and other characteristics of moles on the skin can be potential indicators of skin cancer. The capability of next generation dermatoscopes to store the data of each diagnostic examination plays important role in detecting any change in the structural properties such as a change in the size of a mole, appearance, etc.

The advanced nature of the next generation dermatoscopes further allows physicians to rely on accuracy of stored historical data, comparatively higher magnifying power to examine skin, etc. which in turn help the early diagnosis of various skin conditions.

Although technologically advanced nature of next generation dermatoscopes, a limited number of dermatologists in various countries and availability of this device in the developing world may hamper the growth of next generation dermatoscopes market.
