The global market for sinus dilation devices was valued at approximately USD 2.74 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6% from 2023 to 2030. Several factors are driving this growth, including a strong preference for minimally invasive procedures, favorable reimbursement policies, and an increase in awareness of the advantages of balloon sinuplasty compared to conventional treatments. Chronic sinusitis prevalence also contributes significantly to market demand. The development of advanced surgical techniques that replace traditional sinus procedures is boosting market dynamics, further enhancing growth.
One major contributor to these advancements is the introduction of cutting-edge technologies, such as surgical laser systems in sinus surgery, which allow for minimal tissue removal and result in fewer side effects. Additionally, these innovations reduce the procedure time, making it possible for many surgeries to be performed on an outpatient basis, which is highly convenient for patients and efficient for healthcare systems. An example of innovation in laser treatment includes the National Health Service's (NHS) introduction in 2022 of a new laser therapy for epilepsy patients. This treatment utilizes lasers to precisely target and address brain areas responsible for seizures, offering a new approach to epilepsy management that significantly improves patient quality of life. Such technological advances serve as a model for innovation in sinus surgery as well.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted routine patient care, leading to a temporary halt in elective surgeries and regular clinic visits to free up healthcare resources and staff for intensive and inpatient care. This reallocation of resources impacted treatment options for patients with chronic rhinitis, who turned to teleconsultations and temporary care solutions for sinus-related issues.
In Canada, for instance, the pandemic led to a significant decline in the number of surgeries. During the first 31 months of the pandemic, there were approximately 937,000 fewer surgeries performed (a 14% reduction) compared to pre-pandemic levels. These figures are based on a comparison with 2019 surgery volumes, excluding factors such as population growth. The sharpest decline in surgeries occurred during the initial four months of the pandemic (March to June 2020) as both scheduled and non-urgent procedures were canceled or delayed in line with public health guidelines.
Application Segmentation Insights:
The adult patient segment dominated the sinus dilation device market in 2022, generating more than 65% of total revenue. This is primarily due to the high incidence of sinusitis in adults. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over 28 million adults in the U.S. have been diagnosed with sinusitis, representing approximately 11.6% of the adult population. Sinusitis, a condition in which the air-filled spaces in the facial bones become inflamed, often results in symptoms such as nasal congestion, facial pain, and headaches. Proper management of sinusitis is crucial for alleviating these symptoms and enhancing overall health.
The pediatric segment is expected to exhibit the fastest CAGR, growing at 10.2% over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to an increase in sinusitis cases among children. According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), around 6-13% of children in the U.S. developed chronic or acute rhinosinusitis by age three. Additionally, approximately 7.5% of upper respiratory infections, commonly known as colds, can lead to acute bacterial sinusitis (ABS) in children. ABS, however, is often underdiagnosed in young children, making it difficult to manage in primary care.
Several companies in the sinus dilation device market are focusing on developing products specifically designed for pediatric patients, further solidifying their market position. The NCBI provides updated guidelines to help healthcare providers better diagnose and treat bacterial sinus infections in children. These guidelines are designed to equip doctors with information on recognizing and managing bacterial sinus infections in young patients, which can improve outcomes and the quality of pediatric care.
