Dermatologically Bioactive Microbial Synbiotic

A philosophy, focusing on the largest organ in the human body that nourishes a complex community of bacteria…our skin.

The role of SCINOTA Technology in healthy aging

The technology is a proprietary synbiotic that has been micro-engineered to contain an optimal blend of beneficial probiotics, small-molecule metabolites, and co-factors. Our proprietary synbiotic produces very gentle enzymatic chemical exfoliants, digesting the protein of dead cells and debris on the skin’s surface. Our synbiotic has two primary uses in skincare for exfoliation and anti-inflammation. The synbiotic has been optimized to be an effective exfoliant and can be gentler than other methods like scrubs and microdermabrasion. The upper layer of your skin is mostly made of dead skin cells containing keratin protein. It works by specifically breaking down the keratin protein, resulting in smoother skin meanwhile working with the microbiota found naturally in the skin to function as a scavenger of free radicals and protect skin against oxidative damage.

How are synbiotics used in skin care?

Naturally occurring microbiota and their inherent metabolites have been considered a great deep cleanser for a long time, but there is more to them than just a great surface cleanser. Aesthetician’s now use them for preparing the skin for targeted treatments such as acne and anti-ageing, believing there is a visible difference in results due to their role in “opening” the skin. The maximum removal of dead cells and debris allows a much better and speedier result for the targeted treatment. For example, the dry and dehydrated skin will benefit from the removal of the dead cells by the application, allowing the hydrating care to bring faster, more noticeable results to the skin. Also, acne care products are much more likely to unclog and reduce inflammation if the accumulated buildup of cells has been removed from the skin surface. Anti-aging products can also penetrate deeper and faster to stimulate collagen and elastin development if these blockages are removed.

Probiotics, Prebiotics and Synbiotics

Probiotics are live microorganisms – such as bacteria, yeasts and fungi – which in adequate amounts may have health benefits. Studies have shown they can improve digestion, help protect against disease and enhance immune function. Strains of lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium bacteria are the most commonly used probiotics as they can survive the passage to the gut. Probiotics are most widely available as dietary supplements in tablet, capsule and powder forms or as a component in yoghurts and fermented dairy drinks. Prebiotics, on the other hand, are nondigestible food ingredients that can increase the activity of select “good” bacteria. Prebiotics naturally occurs in bananas, asparagus, leeks, onions, garlic, chicory and whole grains like wheat, rye, barley and oats. Synbiotics are products that contain both prebiotics and probiotics.

Specialising in the setup and operation of clinics that provide services including dermal therapies, physician-grade skincare and treatments and cosmetic injectables. Our experience spanning over 20 years resulted in the founding of the highly successful chain of dermal and laser clinics across Australia “The Laser Lounge” that in addition to the treatments and products provided were also head trainers of AACDS in Sydney training doctors, nurses and beauty therapists who wanted to obtain the qualification of a dermal therapist.

Our consultancy services are targeted at three stages of a clinic’s lifetime.

New clinic: Here we discuss everything from location and branding, in-clinic setup and requirements, best practices, recruitment, expectations, operation/policy manuals, plans to scale, and more. Also suitable for medical/surgical clinics wanting to add dermal therapies as another service.

Established clinic: If you have been running your clinic for a while and feel it’s time to get someone in with fresh eyes for a complete clinic review. We can help and suggest ways of running more efficiently, implementing up to date policies, introducing new treatments or missed opportunities, scaling the business and more.

Time to exit: Knowing when to exit is important to any business but planning for this is always overlooked. Many businesses exit unprepared and as a result, years of hard work building a brand can disappear in seconds. We can help by exploring what is needed to exit the business, when to do so and help close the deal so you maximise your overall return on investment.

Having been in the medical sector for many years we have been exposed to many wonderful disruptive technologies and innovative clinical businesses. In some cases, we have invested in these opportunities, and we have taken pride in having a collaborative, partnership-based approach with our investments, striving to forge close relationships with our partners.

Scinota has in place a tested and proven methodology that incorporates the various characteristics and requirements of the investment which the company will evaluate as part of its review and selection process.

Currently, we are interested in investing in; medical and/or surgical clinics/centres, dermal skin/laser clinics, disruptive biotechnologies, and innovative skincare products/technology. However, if you feel your offering may form a mutual benefit, we would love to hear from you.
