When do chemical peels start to work?

I have really bad Keratosis pilaris all over my arms and forearms and i started using a chemical peel on friday, but my arms have not started to peel yet. When do my arms start to peel and how long after the acid peel does it start to work? I used another peel on my arms yesterday, so i am still waiting for it to work. Oh and its a 20% salicylic acid peel. what can i use then that is stronger?

1. With the salicylic acid peel it's mostly a lunch time peel. It's not strong at all. It doesn't peel a lot. May cause some irritation if you do not use sunscreen daily. This acid can be used twice a week. So you may be able to see some results in a day or two, or after two treatments. I use the TCA peel from makeupartistchoice.com (check it out). At first I brought the 8% and did a 2-layer peel. It showed some results but I wanted something stronger. That wasn't strong enough for me.Being i have acne scars. But it's advised to start with a 8% which is the lowest. that was a month ago, and I graduated to the 12%. I just did this last night so I'm waiting to see the results. will post on myspace with pictures soon. Look up TCA peels if you want to look for peel videos. hope this helps!
