One time peeling has no significant effect. It can slightly improve skin condition, make it smoother and more moisturised, but it will be only brief effect.

Peeling needs to involve an entire body, even hard to reach places like back. You should equip yourself with long brush or sponge with a grip, which will make peeling easier. Epidermis requires exfoliation and regeneration on the entire surface of the body, but it should be more intense on rough body parts like knees, or elbows.
