Doublo 2.0 (HIFU + RF)

Supporting Multi-Layer Skin Tightening and Facial Structure 

Doublo 2.0 is an energy-based treatment designed to support facial lifting and improve skin laxity through stimulation of deeper tissue layers and the dermis. 

 

As the skin ages, several structural changes occur within the face. Collagen production gradually declines, deeper tissue support weakens, and facial contours may soften over time. These changes can contribute to mild sagging, reduced jawline definition, and loss of skin firmness. 

 

Doublo 2.0 combines high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) with radiofrequency (RF) energy, allowing treatment of both deeper structural layers and the dermis. 

 

By targeting multiple layers of the skin, the treatment may help support skin tightening, collagen stimulation, and improved facial contour over time. 

 

At CLEO Aesthetic, Doublo 2.0 treatments may be incorporated into personalised treatment plans designed to support facial lifting and structural skin quality while maintaining natural facial balance.

Understanding Multi-Layer Skin Ageing

Changes in facial appearance over time often occur at multiple layers of the face, not just the skin surface. 

Different layers contribute to facial structure and skin quality: 

Facial Layer Roles Examples of Treatments
Skin surface / epidermis
Skin tone and texture
Lasers, peels
Dermis
Collagen support and skin firmness
Radiofrequency, collagen stimulators
Deeper structural layers (SMAS)
Facial lifting and tissue support
HIFU

Because these layers change over time, treatments may sometimes be selected to target different depths within the face depending on the individual’s skin condition and aesthetic goals. 

 

Energy-based treatments such as Doublo 2.0 may be used to support deeper tissue tightening while also stimulating collagen activity within the dermis. 

How Doublo 2.0 Works

Doublo 2.0 uses two different forms of energy that work at different depths within the skin. 

HIFU: Deeper Structural Tightening

High-intensity focused ultrasound delivers energy into deeper tissue layers, including structures involved in facial support. 

 

This energy creates small zones of controlled thermal stimulation within targeted tissue layers. These micro-zones may stimulate tissue contraction and collagen remodelling. 

 

This process may help support: 

  • facial lifting
  • jawline definition
  • structural facial support 

Radiofrequency: Dermal Collagen Support

Radiofrequency energy primarily targets the dermis, the layer of skin where collagen fibres are located. 

 

RF energy creates controlled heating within the dermal layer, which may stimulate collagen production and support improvements in skin texture and firmness. 

 

This process may help support: 

  • skin tightening
  • collagen stimulation
  • improved skin texture 

Multi-Layer Treatment 

By combining HIFU and radiofrequency in the same treatment session, Doublo 2.0 may support both deeper structural lifting and dermal collagen renewal.

 

Because collagen remodelling occurs gradually, improvements typically develop progressively over several weeks. 

Conditions This Treatment May Address

Doublo 2.0 treatments may be considered for individuals experiencing: 

  • mild to moderate skin laxity
  • early facial sagging
  • reduced jawline definition 
  • loss of skin firmness 
  • early structural facial ageing 

 

Suitability depends on individual facial anatomy and clinical assessment. 

Treatment Areas

Doublo 2.0 may be performed in areas where structural support and skin tightening may improve facial contour. 

Treatment Area Purpose
Cheeks
Support mid-face lifting
Jawline
Improve contour definition
Neck
Support skin tightening
Lower face
Improve contour definition

Treatment areas are selected according to individual anatomy and treatment goals. 

Unique Features of Doublo 2.0 at CLEO Aesthetic

Multi-Layer Energy Technology

The combination of ultrasound and radiofrequency allows treatment of different layers of the skin within a single session.

Deeper Structural Targeting

HIFU technology allows ultrasound energy to reach deeper tissue layers involved in facial support.

Dermal Collagen Stimulation

Radiofrequency energy supports collagen activity within the dermis, helping improve skin firmness and texture.

Personalised Treatment Planning

Treatment depth, energy levels, and treatment areas are selected based on the individual’s facial anatomy and skin condition.

Benefits

Patients undergoing Doublo 2.0 treatments may experience improvements such as:

  • improved facial lifting
  • enhanced jawline definition
  • improved skin firmness
  • gradual improvement in facial contour

Results vary depending on individual skin characteristics and treatment response. 

Who May Benefit

Doublo 2.0 treatments may be suitable for individuals who: 

  • notice early facial sagging
  • wish to improve jawline definition
  • want non-surgical lifting treatments
  • experience mild to moderate skin laxity

A consultation allows the doctor to determine whether this treatment may be appropriate. 

What to Expect During Treatment

Initial Consultation

The doctor will assess facial structure and skin condition to determine whether Doublo 2.0 may be suitable.

Treatment Procedure

During treatment:

1. The skin is cleansed and prepared.

2. Ultrasound gel may be applied.

3. The device delivers focused ultrasound and radiofrequency energy to targeted areas.

Treatment sessions typically take 30–45 minutes depending on the areas treated.

Recovery

Most individuals can resume normal activities shortly after treatment.

Gradual Lifting Effect

Improvements in skin firmness and lifting typically develop gradually as collagen remodelling occurs.

Possible Side Effects and Considerations

Temporary effects may occur following treatment. 

 

Possible effects may include: 

Mild redness

temporary swelling

mild tenderness

Because ultrasound energy is delivered to deeper tissue layers, some individuals may experience mild temporary soreness in treated areas. These effects usually resolve within a short period. 

 

A consultation allows the doctor to determine whether Doublo 2.0 treatment may be appropriate. 

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon will results appear?

Some individuals may notice early improvement within several weeks. Collagen remodelling may continue for several months. 

Most individuals experience minimal downtime. Temporary redness or tenderness may occur. 

The number of treatments recommended depends on the individual’s skin condition and treatment goals. 

Different energy-based technologies are designed to target different layers of the skin. 

 

High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) devices such as Doublo 2.0 deliver focused ultrasound energy to deeper tissue layers involved in facial support. 
Radiofrequency (RF) technologies, on the other hand, primarily target the dermis, the layer where collagen fibres responsible for skin firmness are located. 

 

Doublo 2.0 allows both ultrasound and radiofrequency energy to be delivered within the same treatment session, which may support treatment of multiple skin layers. 

 

In this approach: 

  • ultrasound energy targets deeper structural layers that contribute to facial suppor
  • radiofrequency energy targets the dermis where collagen stimulation occurs

 

By addressing both structural support and dermal collagen activity within a single treatment plan, the treatment may help support improvements in skin firmness, contour, and overall skin quality. 

 

The most appropriate treatment approach depends on the individual’s skin condition and treatment goals, and will be determined during consultation. 

Yes. Some individuals may benefit from treatment plans that combine different technologies targeting different layers of the skin.

 

For example, treatments that stimulate collagen in the dermis may be combined with procedures that support deeper tissue structures.

 

The most appropriate treatment approach depends on the individual’s facial anatomy, degree of skin laxity, and aesthetic goals.
