Supporting education: a snapshot of POLYTECH’s social media community

POLYTECH Health & Aesthetics GmbH

As a global leader in breast aesthetics, POLYTECH has been supporting patients for almost 40 years. 

We believe that everyone should have access to educational information that can help them make the best decisions regarding their health and wellness.

As people around the world utilise social media as a source for information, we have used our own channels to support education on breast implants, body-contouring implants and the available options for breast augmentation, breast reconstruction, lipofilling and more (whether the reader is a patient or decided not to proceed with a procedure).

The largest community in breast aesthetics 

Over the course of the last 12 years, POLYTECH has created a community of more than 1 million followers across different social media channels and languages, the largest community in the breast aesthetics industry! 

Our followers come from all around the world and can benefit from our posts to educate themselves on topics from breast and body implant types to surgery options and aftercare tips. 

We have posted more than 40 thousand posts to date, gathering more than 180 million views and millions of interactions. Our team also responds to thousands of patient questions and inquiries every year. 

Committed to education 

The patient journey can be a challenging one, especially during the initial phase of learning and research, but social media has enabled easier access to information.

At POLYTECH we are committed to utilising social media to support this journey and make the learning curve more accessible and much easier. 

We take our commitment to education very seriously. Our followers can rest assured that the content is accurate, relevant and appropriate for patients. As a medical device manufacturer, we adhere to the applicable regulatory and legal requirements:

  • All our content (web and social media) is created in-house, relying on evidence based clinical data and is subjected to several quality, regulatory and legal reviews before being approved and posted.

Final note:

When you are looking for information about surgical procedures, it is important to remember that not all content is created equal.

While we take pride in the fact that our content is carefully curated and based on reliable sources, every patient is different.

What works for one person might not work for someone else. Always cross-check any information with your surgeon and follow your surgeon’s counsel regarding what will work best for you.
