In October 2025, Dr Sin Yong hosted a HIRONIC Doublo 2.0 physician session at his practice on Orchard Road, Singapore — presenting his Beyond HIFU protocol and his 3D Facial Reconstruction approach to attending Singapore physicians, in the presence of the HIRONIC Korean headquarters team.
This session was held at his own practice on Orchard Road — a deliberate choice that speaks to the depth of the Doublo 2.0’s integration into his clinical workflow. When a physician shares his approach with others in the clinic where he practises daily, using the equipment integrated into their own patient care, the protocol being shared is not theoretical. It is the live operating procedure of a functioning clinical practice.
The HIRONIC Korean headquarters team attended the session in person, reinforcing the global-to-local nature of the collaboration: a Korean aesthetic device manufacturer’s headquarers team present at a Singapore Global KOL’s clinic, watching their technology being applied in clinical practice and shared with other physicians.
“Sharing my clinical expertise with other physicians here at my practice on Orchard Road, with the device I use in daily practice, on real patients, is the most honest form of clinical education I can offer. What you see is what I actually do — not a curated demonstration in a conference venue, but the protocol as it runs in clinical practice.”

Dr Sin Yong presenting the “Doublo new 2.0 — Beyond HIFU” lecture to the attending physician audience at his aesthetic practice on Orchard Road.
Dr Sin Yong’s lecture, titled “Beyond HIFU,” was designed to reframe how attending physicians think about the Doublo 2.0 platform — moving the clinical conversation past the conventional HIFU lifting narrative and into his own 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol, which uses the Doublo 2.0 as the structural lifting foundation of a multi-layer approach to facial rejuvenation.
HIFU — High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound — is widely understood in the aesthetic physician community as a lifting modality. The Doublo 2.0 delivers focused ultrasound energy to the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) and deep dermal layers, producing thermal coagulation points that trigger collagen contraction and new collagen synthesis. The conventional clinical conversation about HIFU focuses on this lifting mechanism and its skin tightening effect.
Dr Sin Yong’s Beyond HIFU framing extends the clinical application of the Doublo 2.0 into the fuller context of his 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol — a triplanar approach that addresses three anatomical layers simultaneously:
Within this framework, the Doublo 2.0’s HIFU capability handles Depth 1 — the structural SMAS-level lift — while the platform’s RF capabilities integrate into Depths 2 and 3. The lecture presented the full triplanar protocol to attending physicians, with the Doublo 2.0 positioned not as a standalone HIFU device but as the central platform of a coordinated multi-layer facial reconstruction approach.
“The Doublo 2.0 is powerful precisely because it gives us HIFU and RF in a single platform — which means we can address the structural SMAS layer and the mid-layer volumetric zone in the same session. When you add that to a disciplined surface treatment protocol, you have a genuine 3D approach to the ageing face — not just a lifting procedure.”

Following the didactic lecture, Dr Sin Yong moved directly into a live patient demonstration — performing the Doublo 2.0 component of his 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol on an actual patient while the attending physicians and the HIRONIC Korean headquarters team observed. The room was equipped with multiple devices visible in the clinical setting, reflecting the multi-platform reality of Dr Sin Yong’s practice — where the Doublo 2.0 is one component of a coordinated device portfolio.
The live demonstration gave attending physicians a direct view of the treatment sequence, handpiece selection, transducer depth settings, and the clinical judgment involved in adapting the protocol to individual facial anatomy — elements that cannot be conveyed through slides or device specifications alone.

The presence of the HIRONIC Korean headquarters team at this session underlines the significance of the relationship. HIRONIC — a Korean aesthetic energy device manufacturer — recognised Dr Sin Yong as a HIRONIC Global KOL at their VVIP Partners Meeting in Seoul in March 2026. The Singapore visit reflects HIRONIC’s continued investment in the partnership: supporting Dr Sin Yong’s physician education activity at the local level, observing how their Doublo 2.0 platform performs in his clinical setting, and contributing to the physician knowledge-transfer that forms the foundation of their Asia-Pacific education programme.
For Dr Sin Yong, the Korean headquarters team’s presence at his aesthetic practice is also an opportunity for direct feedback and protocol dialogue with the people closest to the device’s engineering and clinical development — a collaborative dynamic that benefits both the physician and the manufacturer.
“Having the HIRONIC team here in the clinic, watching how the Doublo 2.0 performs in live practice and seeing how I integrate it into the 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol, is a genuinely productive exchange. It keeps the clinical-device relationship honest — and it means what I share with attending physicians is grounded in exactly what the manufacturer sees their device doing at the highest level of clinical application.”
The HIRONIC Doublo 2.0 is one of HIRONIC’s flagship HIFU+RF platforms, combining multi-depth focused ultrasound with radiofrequency energy delivery in a single device. Its integration into Dr Sin Yong’s 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol at his Orchard Road practice reflects the clinical confidence that underpins his HIRONIC Global KOL status — a recognition formally conferred at HIRONIC’s 20th anniversary VVIP Partners Meeting in Seoul, where Dr Sin Yong presented his combined RF and HIFU lifting protocols to the international physician community.
Physician sessions like this one in Singapore — hosted at his practice on Orchard Road, with the Doublo 2.0 in active daily clinical use — represent the local expression of that international partnership, in which HIRONIC invites him to share his clinical expertise with physicians in Singapore.
“Two ultrasound devices quoting the same depth on the specification sheet can deposit energy quite differently. The number is not the mechanism.”

WhatsApp Dr Sin YongBeyond HIFU reframes the HIRONIC Doublo 2.0 from a stand-alone lifting device into the structural foundation of Dr Sin Yong's 3D Facial Reconstruction protocol. HIFU energy at the SMAS level provides the deep lift, while the platform's radiofrequency capabilities address the mid-layer volumetric zone and the surface, so three anatomical depths are planned together.
A triplanar approach to the ageing face that treats three layers in sequence: structural lifting at the SMAS with focused ultrasound, volumetric remodelling of the layer between SMAS and dermis with radiofrequency, and surface tightening for dermal quality and pore refinement. It is described in full under 3D Facial Reconstruction.
The Doublo 2.0 is one of HIRONIC's HIFU-plus-RF platforms, combining multi-depth focused ultrasound with radiofrequency delivery in a single device. In October 2025 Dr Sin Yong hosted a physician session on it at his Orchard Road practice, with the HIRONIC Korean headquarters team present, followed by a live treatment demonstration of the Doublo 2.0 component of his protocol.
