The Core Difference
Jane App is a Canadian clinic management system built for physiotherapy, chiropractic, and allied health practices. It's well-made software for that market.
Aestheticc is built for UK aesthetic clinics: Botox, dermal fillers, skin treatments, body contouring. Every feature is designed around how aesthetic practitioners actually work.
The question isn't which is better software. It's which is built for your industry and your country.

The UK Problem
Jane App is designed for Canadian regulations and payment systems. If you're a UK aesthetic clinic, you'll run into:
- Payments: Jane Payments does work in the UK, but there's no Klarna or buy-now-pay-later support, which many aesthetic clients expect.
- Compliance: No CQC tracking, no UK GDPR-specific features, no awareness of UK advertising regulations for aesthetic treatments.
- SMS: UK phone number support is limited. Appointment reminders may not work reliably.
- Support: Jane's support team operates on Canadian time zones.
None of these are dealbreakers if you're determined to use Jane. But why fight your software when you could use something built for your market?
When Jane App Makes Sense
- You're a physiotherapy or allied health practice in Canada or the US
- You've used Jane before and want to keep the same system after moving to the UK
- You need a general clinic management tool and don't need aesthetics-specific features
When Aestheticc Makes Sense
- You're a UK aesthetic clinic (the clue is in the name)
- You want Stripe payments, UK compliance tracking, and aesthetics workflows out of the box
- You don't want to pay in Canadian dollars and deal with exchange rate surprises
- You want support from people who understand UK aesthetics
