Treatment Overview
Doublo-S is a Korean-developed HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) device designed for non-surgical skin tightening and lifting. It delivers focused ultrasound energy to multiple skin depths, including the dermis and the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) layer, stimulating collagen production, improving elasticity, and lifting sagging tissues. It is considered one of the most effective and widely used HIFU technologies in Korean dermatology.
Juvelook is a hybrid skin booster that combines polylactic acid (PLA) microspheres with hyaluronic acid (HA). It provides both immediate hydration and long-term collagen regeneration, enhancing skin density, elasticity, and smoothness.
When combined, Doublo-S and Juvelook deliver layered rejuvenation: Doublo-S lifts and tightens from deep structural layers, while Juvelook restores hydration and strengthens dermal quality for long-lasting anti-aging benefits.
Purpose & Benefits
- Deep Lifting: Doublo-S tightens SMAS and dermal layers for facelift-like results.
- Collagen Remodeling: Both treatments stimulate fibroblasts for long-term elasticity.
- Wrinkle Softening: Reduces fine lines, folds, and sagging skin.
- Hydration & Radiance: Juvelook’s HA restores skin moisture and glow.
- V-Line Definition: Doublo-S sharpens the jawline and reduces jowls.
- Dual Action: Structural lifting from HIFU and dermal rejuvenation from Juvelook.
- Non-Surgical: Minimally invasive alternative to surgical facelifts.
Ideal Candidates
- Men and women in their 30s–60s with mild to moderate sagging.
- Patients with jowls, double chin, or early facial heaviness.
- Individuals with fine wrinkles and loss of skin elasticity.
- Those seeking natural results from non-invasive rejuvenation.
- Patients preferring combination therapies for stronger outcomes.
Possible Risks & Complications
- Doublo-S: Temporary redness, tingling, or mild swelling. Rare chance of bruising or nerve irritation if energy is misapplied.
- Juvelook: Mild swelling, redness, or bruising at injection points. Rare risk of nodules if filler is not evenly injected.
- Combination: Generally safe, though mild tenderness or temporary sensitivity can occur.
Techniques Used
- Doublo-S: HIFU energy delivered at multiple depths (1.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 4.5 mm) to stimulate collagen and contract tissues for lifting.
- Juvelook: Injected into the dermal layer using micro-injections or cannulas; HA provides hydration while PLA triggers collagen renewal.
- Combination Protocol: Doublo-S first for lifting and tightening, followed by Juvelook for skin density and hydration.
Recovery & Aftercare
- Immediately: Mild redness or swelling from ultrasound; small marks from injections.
- 1–7 Days: Sensitivity and tenderness subside; hydration benefits from Juvelook are noticeable.
- 1–3 Months: Collagen remodeling improves elasticity and contours.
Aftercare Tips:
- Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and strenuous activity for 1 week.
- Use SPF 50+ daily to protect treated skin.
- Avoid pressing or massaging injection areas.
- Keep skin hydrated for optimal results.
Results & Longevity
- Immediately: Subtle lift from Doublo-S; hydration boost from Juvelook.
- After 2–3 Months: Stronger lift and contour definition with improved skin texture and firmness.
- Longevity: Doublo-S results last 12–18 months; Juvelook effects last 12–18 months with maintenance.
