HydraFacial Syndeo treatment at Dr Joney De Souza Clinic in Marylebone, London, designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate, extract impurities and hydrate the skin in one comfortable, no-downtime appointment.
Every HydraFacial Syndeo treatment is fully customised to your skin’s needs and goals
HydraFacial is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. At our Marylebone clinic, patients most commonly choose it for:
Many patients book monthly sessions as a maintenance treatment, with results that build noticeably over time.
HydraFacial is a non-invasive, multi-step skin treatment that uses patented Vortex-Fusion® technology to cleanse, exfoliate, extract and infuse the skin with medical-grade hydrating serums in a single session with no downtime. At Dr Joney De Souza Clinic, every treatment is personalised to your skin concerns and goals.
HydraFacial suits patients at very different stages, those booking a one-off treatment before a specific occasion, those new to professional skin treatments and wanting a gentle starting point, and those building it into a regular monthly programme. If you are not sure which applies to you, the clinical team will advise at your consultation.
As a HydraFacial Verified Provider, Dr Joney De Souza Clinic meets the highest standards set by HydraFacial for treatment quality, advanced personalisation and clinical excellence.
HydraFacial is a multi-step facial treatment that combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, gentle extraction and intense hydration using patented vortex technology and targeted medical-grade serums.
The treatment helps remove impurities, excess oil and dead skin cells while simultaneously delivering hydrating ingredients to leave the skin clearer, smoother and more radiant.
Many patients notice visibly brighter, smoother and more hydrated skin immediately after HydraFacial treatment. The skin often appears clearer and more refreshed following just one session.
With regular HydraFacial treatments, patients may also see ongoing improvements in congestion, pore appearance, skin texture and overall radiance over time.
If this is your first HydraFacial, your initial session will include a brief skin assessment before treatment begins. Your clinician will discuss your main concerns, note
any sensitivities or active skin conditions, and select the appropriate serums and treatment intensity. Most first-time patients are surprised by how comfortable the treatment is and by how immediately visible the result is. You will leave the clinic with noticeably cleaner, brighter and more hydrated skin from a single session, with no redness or recovery required.
Many patients at Dr Joney De Souza Clinic include HydraFacial in their monthly skin programme. Regular sessions maintain clear pores, sustained hydration and a consistent level of skin clarity that is difficult to achieve through home skincare alone. Over a course of treatments, patients typically notice a progressive improvement in skin texture, reduced congestion and a more even complexion. HydraFacial also works well alongside injectables, skin boosters and laser treatments as a regular maintenance layer within a broader skin
plan.
No special preparation is required before your HydraFacial. Arrive with clean skin or minimal makeup and your clinician will begin with a VISIA skin analysis to assess your skin condition in detail before treatment begins. VISIA measures concerns including pore appearance, pigmentation, texture, fine lines, redness and overall skin age, giving your clinician an objective baseline to select the most appropriate serums and treatment intensity for that session. This takes only a few minutes and ensures every treatment is calibrated to how your skin presents on the day, not applied from a fixed protocol.
There is no required downtime or preparation, making HydraFacial well suited to busy schedules and straightforward to fit around your day. If you are attending for the first time, the assessment is a good opportunity to ask questions and discuss your skin concerns with the clinical team before treatment begins.
The treatment uses the HydraFacial Syndeo handpiece to move through each step in sequence: gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and surface debris, a light acid peel to loosen congestion within the pores, vacuum-powered extraction to lift impurities cleanly, and a final infusion of hydrating and antioxidant-rich serums. Where appropriate, a targeted medical-grade booster serum is selected to address specific concerns such as pigmentation, fine lines, acne or loss of radiance.
The treatment feels smooth, cooling and refreshing throughout. There is no discomfort, no need for numbing and no irritation. Most sessions take between 30 and 60 minutes depending on the option selected. Platinum treatments include additional lymphatic drainage and LED light therapy, which extend the session slightly and enhance the overall result.
Immediately after your session, your skin will feel noticeably smoother, plumper and more hydrated. Your complexion will appear brighter, clearer and more even in tone, with a visible glow that is apparent from the treatment table. Makeup can be applied straight away, making HydraFacial a popular choice as a preparation treatment before events, weddings or special occasions.
There is no downtime. You can return to work or normal activities immediately. A small number of patients notice a very brief mild warmth or flush of redness directly after treatment, which typically settles within an hour. Your clinician will confirm aftercare recommendations at the end of your session, including any products to use or avoid in the first 24 hours.
HydraFacial is available at many clinics across London. At Dr Joney De Souza Clinic, it is delivered within a doctor-led environment where every treatment begins with a thorough clinical skin assessment. Serum selection, treatment intensity and any complementary treatments are determined by your skin on the day, not chosen from a standard menu.
We use the HydraFacial Syndeo system alongside a curated range of medical-grade boosters, overseen by a clinical team with medical training and decades of aesthetic experience.
New patients begin with a brief clinical skin assessment before their first session. There is no obligation to commit to a course at that stage, the majority of patients choose to continue once they see the result.
Dr Joney De Souza Clinic is a HydraFacial Verified Provider, confirming that treatments
are performed to the highest standards using approved protocols and genuine equipment. Every
consultation includes a VISIA skin analysis, giving each patient and their clinician an
objective, data-driven picture of their skin before treatment begins rather than relying on
visual assessment alone.

We offer a range of HydraFacial treatment options at our Marylebone clinic, each tailored to your skin concerns and goals. All treatments include a personalised assessment with our clinical team.
Classic is the right starting point for maintenance, first-time patients and mild concerns. Deluxe is suited to patients with a specific target, pigmentation, congestion, fine lines or loss of radiance. Platinum gives the most comprehensive result in a single session and is particularly well suited to patients preparing the skin before a significant event. Your clinician will confirm the most appropriate option at consultation.

HydraFacial works at the surface, delivering hydration and actives into the upper layers of the skin for immediate clarity and glow. Skin boosters work at a deeper level, introducing hyaluronic acid directly into the dermis to replenish moisture reserves that topical treatments and facials cannot reach. The two approaches address the same underlying goal from opposite directions.
Patients who combine regular HydraFacial sessions with a course of skin boosters typically notice that surface results last longer and feel more sustained between treatments. The dermal hydration provided by skin boosters gives the skin a stronger foundation, and HydraFacial keeps the surface in consistently better condition. Dr De Souza will advise on the right combination and sequencing for your skin at consultation.
HydraFacial is one of the most versatile skin treatments available, yet patients often arrive with questions about exactly what it involves, how it works and whether it is right for their particular concerns. The answers below cover the most common questions we hear at Dr Joney De Souza Clinic, from how the different treatment tiers compare to how HydraFacial performs on specific skin types and conditions including congestion, dehydration, fine lines and acne-prone skin.
Once patients understand what HydraFacial does, the next questions are usually about how it sits alongside other treatments, what it costs and whether it is worth it as a long-term investment. The answers below address the most frequent comparisons we hear, including HydraFacial versus chemical peels, PRP and polynucleotides, as well as how combining treatments works in practice, what to expect from a doctor-led clinic and how to take the next step.
HydraFacial and chemical peels both resurface the skin, but they work in different ways and suit different concerns. A chemical peel uses an acid solution applied to the skin to cause a controlled exfoliation, which requires a recovery period of several days. HydraFacial uses vortex technology to resurface, extract and hydrate simultaneously with no downtime. The two treatments are complementary rather than competing, and many patients at our clinic use both as part of a structured skin programme.
Yes, and in many cases combining HydraFacial with other treatments produces a stronger result than either alone. HydraFacial pairs particularly well with anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, microneedling and polynucleotides as part of a comprehensive skin programme. Dr De Souza will advise on the most effective combination for your skin goals during your consultation at our Marylebone clinic.
HydraFacial is one of the safest skin treatments available. It is non-invasive, requires no injections and uses no harsh chemicals. The vortex extraction system is gentle enough for sensitive skin and the serum selection can be adjusted to minimise any risk of reaction. At Dr Joney De Souza Clinic, all treatments are delivered within a doctor-led environment with clinical oversight at every stage.
HydraFacial is generally well tolerated by sensitive skin types because it avoids harsh exfoliation or aggressive techniques. Treatment intensity and the acid peel step can be reduced or modified for patients with reactive or rosacea-prone skin. A professional assessment prior to treatment ensures the protocol is appropriate for your individual skin condition.
At a doctor-led clinic, HydraFacial is delivered within a clinical framework with thorough skin assessment, appropriate protocol selection and access to medical-grade complementary treatments. Dr Joney De Souza and his team assess each patient individually, adjust treatment parameters to match your skin on the day and provide clinical aftercare guidance throughout your course. Patients who want more than a routine facial experience benefit significantly from this level of oversight and personalisation.
For the right patient, HydraFacial is one of the most effective, safest and most versatile skin treatments available. It delivers visible results from a single session, requires no downtime and is suitable for a wide range of concerns and skin types. The quality of the result depends significantly on the skill of the clinician and the precision of the treatment protocol, which is why the choice of clinic matters.
Most patients describe HydraFacial as a smooth, relaxing and refreshing experience. The cleansing and serum infusion steps produce a cooling, hydrating sensation. The extraction step uses gentle suction rather than manual pressure, which most patients find entirely comfortable. There is no discomfort during or after the treatment, and you can return to your usual activities immediately.
HydraFacial Classic starts at £150 per session. HydraFacial Deluxe is priced from £195 and HydraFacial Platinum from £250. A course of sessions is available at a discounted rate. Pricing reflects the clinical expertise of Dr De Souza and his team, the Syndeo equipment and the level of personalisation provided from consultation through to aftercare. Current pricing is confirmed at consultation.
For patients wanting visible, immediate results with no downtime, HydraFacial represents strong value compared to treatments requiring recovery periods or more frequent repetition. When delivered by a skilled clinician using the Syndeo system with personalised serum selection, it is one of the most consistent and reliable skin treatments available in London. The improvements in glow, texture and hydration that a course of treatments produces are tangible and well-maintained with monthly upkeep.
HydraFacial, PRP and Polynucleotides address different aspects of skin health and work at different depths. HydraFacial works at the surface level, cleansing, extracting and infusing actives into the skin for immediate clarity, hydration and glow. PRP and Polynucleotides are regenerative injectables that work at a deeper biological level to stimulate collagen and improve structural skin quality over weeks and months. Many patients at our clinic use all three in combination for a comprehensive approach to skin health.
You can contact us by WhatsApp, phone or email. Alternatively, you can book your treatment online. Dr Joney De Souza Clinic is located in Marylebone, central London, within easy reach of Bond Street, Baker Street and Marble Arch tube stations.
After your HydraFacial, keep the skin clean and avoid touching the treated area. SPF should be applied the following morning and throughout your course of treatment, as the skin is more responsive to UV during the days after treatment. Avoid heavy make-up for 24 hours, intense exercise for 48 hours and heat-based activities such as saunas or steam rooms for 72 hours. Use gentle, hydrating skincare and avoid retinoids or acids for one week.
Our patients return to us year after year for natural, balanced results. Every review reflects our commitment to precision, safety and a personalised approach to aesthetic care.
