At Gloss & Floss in Södermalm, we use SkinCeuticals professional peeling concepts with treatment intensity selected according to your skin and goals.
The aim is not to use the strongest peel possible. It is to choose an appropriate treatment for your skin condition, sensitivity and desired outcome while giving you clear guidance before and after the treatment.

Quick answer
Chemical peeling is a professional exfoliating treatment that can help improve radiance, skin texture and the appearance of uneven tone. The treatment is personalised according to skin type, skin condition and treatment goals.
What can chemical peeling help with?
Chemical peeling is primarily used to improve the appearance and feel of the skin surface. The exact treatment plan depends on your skin condition and individual goals.
Radiance
Can help dull or tired-looking skin appear brighter and fresher.
Skin texture
Controlled exfoliation can support a smoother and more refined skin surface.
Uneven tone
May be relevant for mild uneven pigmentation, sun-related changes or an uneven complexion.
Fine lines & pores
Can improve the visible appearance of fine lines, pores and superficial unevenness.
What is a SkinCeuticals chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a controlled exfoliating treatment in which professional acids are applied to the skin to remove accumulated surface cells and improve the appearance of texture, tone and radiance.
At Gloss & Floss, we work with SkinCeuticals professional peeling concepts. Treatment intensity and protocol are selected according to the condition of your skin and the result you are aiming for.
Glycolic acid is one of several exfoliating acids used in professional chemical peeling. SkinCeuticals describes superficial chemical peels as treatments that may use a single acid or combinations of acids, depending on the professional protocol. Concentration, skin type, application time and skin reactivity all influence how a peel performs. Read SkinCeuticals information about superficial chemical peels.
A personalised treatment, not a standard formula
Two people with similar concerns may need different treatment intensities. We therefore consider skin sensitivity, current skin condition, pigmentation, previous treatments and home-care routine before deciding on the most appropriate approach.
If you are unsure where to begin, you can start with our skin analysis and consultation.
When can chemical peeling be suitable?
A professional peel may be relevant if you want to work with:
- dull or tired-looking skin
- uneven skin texture
- uneven tone or mild pigmentation
- visible pores
- fine lines and early surface ageing
- sun-related surface changes
Your skin assessment guides the treatment
Not every skin type or skin condition should be treated in the same way. If the skin is irritated, highly reactive or not suitable for peeling at the time of your visit, treatment may need to be adjusted or postponed.
We therefore assess your current skin condition before deciding on treatment intensity and aftercare.
How chemical peeling is performed
Chemical peeling is relatively quick, but each stage matters for treatment tolerance and the quality of the result.
Skin assessment
We review your skin condition, sensitivity, previous treatments and what you want to improve.
Cleansing & preparation
The skin is carefully cleansed and prepared so the peel can be applied evenly and safely.
Peeling
The peel is applied under controlled conditions. Treatment intensity and exposure are adapted to the skin response.
Aftercare
You receive guidance on gentle skin care, recovery and sun protection after treatment.
What can you expect after a chemical peel?
After a superficial peel, many people notice that the skin feels smoother and looks clearer. The exact reaction varies according to skin sensitivity and treatment intensity.
Common temporary reactions
- mild redness or warmth
- temporary skin sensitivity
- tightness or dryness
- light flaking or peeling in some people
Treat the skin gently and use daily sun protection. Restart active skin-care products only as advised. Blistering, increasing pain, spreading redness, pus or fever needs prompt contact with the clinic. Less common complications include infection, persistent pigment change and scarring; skin type, previous reactions and medicines affect suitability.
One treatment or a course of chemical peels?
Some clients choose a single chemical peel when the goal is a skin refresh or added radiance. Others may benefit from a planned series in which the result is built gradually.
The appropriate number and spacing of treatments depends on your starting point, treatment goal, peel used and how your skin responds after the first treatment.
For superficial or light chemical peels, SkinCeuticals notes that repeated treatments may be spaced approximately 4–6 weeks apart in some treatment programmes. This is not a fixed schedule for everyone: at Gloss & Floss, the interval is individualised according to skin recovery, treatment intensity and your goals.
Our approach
We do not automatically recommend a fixed number of treatments for everyone. Your skin response after treatment helps guide whether another peel, maintenance treatment or a different treatment approach is appropriate.

Frequently asked questions about chemical peeling
What is a chemical peel?
A chemical peel is a professional exfoliating treatment in which controlled acids are applied to the skin to remove accumulated surface cells and improve the appearance of texture, tone and radiance.
What does chemical peeling do for the skin?
Chemical peeling exfoliates the skin surface and can help the complexion look clearer, smoother and more even. The result depends on your skin condition and the peel selected.
What is glycolic acid?
Glycolic acid is an exfoliating alpha-hydroxy acid commonly used in professional peeling. It helps loosen accumulated surface cells so the skin can be exfoliated in a controlled way.
Is chemical peeling suitable for sensitive skin?
Suitability depends on the individual skin condition. Sensitive or reactive skin may require a different intensity, additional preparation or an alternative treatment. We assess this before proceeding.
Does a chemical peel hurt?
You may feel tingling, warmth or temporary stinging during application. The sensation varies depending on skin sensitivity and treatment intensity.
Will my skin peel or flake afterwards?
Mild flaking can occur after some superficial peels, although not everyone experiences visible peeling. The reaction depends on treatment intensity and individual skin response.
What does the skin look like immediately afterwards?
The skin may appear mildly pink and feel warm or sensitive for a short period. Many clients also notice that the skin feels smoother and looks fresher.
How much downtime is there after a chemical peel?
Superficial chemical peels usually have limited downtime, although mild redness, sensitivity or flaking may occur. Recovery varies according to treatment intensity and individual skin response.
How often should I have a chemical peel?
There is no fixed schedule that suits everyone. For superficial chemical peels, SkinCeuticals describes approximately 4–6 weeks between treatments as a possible interval in some treatment series. At Gloss & Floss, frequency is individualised according to skin condition, treatment intensity, recovery and response.
Can chemical peeling help pigmentation or post-acne marks?
Chemical peeling may improve the appearance of mild uneven pigmentation and superficial post-acne marks. Deeper scars or more complex pigmentation may require a different or combined treatment approach.
What should I avoid after a chemical peel?
Treat the skin gently, avoid unnecessary irritation and follow your aftercare instructions. Strong active products may need to be paused temporarily, and daily sun protection is important.
