Why Aesthetic Medicine Bookings are Up By 200% For Jeck Treatments

Jeck - a name for the point at which jaws merge with necks, known formerly as double chins (cruel), softened jaws (charitable) or even nins (clever). Maybe it can be blamed on showing our jecks of on zoom for the past year or the little weight gain we refuse to acknowledge - solving the disdainful jeck problem has become all the rage out of lockdown.

As lockdown eases and clinics reopen their doors, our partners, Therapie Clinic, the UK’s largest and no.1 Doctor led medical clinic with over 50 state of the art premises, are experiencing an unprecedented demand for ‘Jeck’ treatments with bookings up by over 200%. The elite medical team at Therapie Clinic have doubled their impressive roster of doctors to 200 to cater for the post Covid boom in demand for treatments tackling the neck, jowls and jaw.

Therapie Clinic attribute a number of varying factors to the post-lockdown Jeck boom including, increased time spent on Zoom and video calls thus spending increased time looking at one’s own reflection, the inability to continue regular facial routines, increased time spent on social media as well as a greater appreciation for self-care and wellness.

Ahead of opening their doors post-lockdown Therapie Clinic had accumulated a waiting list of over 100,000 people for their Botox and laser hair removal treatments alone.

Dr Paul Reddy, Medical Director at Therapie Clinic’ expresses: “Treatments which target the ‘jeck’ area incorporate Dermal Fillers using the new Juvederm Volux Dermal Filler product which provides sculpting, definition and enhancement in the lower face, delivering a subtly enhanced definition to the jawline and a beautiful harmonisation and balance to the chin area. Both these treatments contribute to a marked reduction and resolution to any early jowling or shadowing in the lower face area.”

There are also several Botox treatments that can improve the aesthetic in the lower face, including the Masseter treatment. This can subtly reduce the bulk of an over-enhanced Masseter (chewing) muscle, providing a more contoured slimming effect of the lower face. Other injectable treatments can reduce a dimpling effect of the chin.

Dr. Paul Reddy concludes: “A combination of injectable Dermal Filler (Juvederm) treatments with Botox treatments can result in an overall beautiful rejuvenation and enhanced aesthetic in the lower face.”

No wonder they have become so popular!
