Duration of chemical peel left on face ?

Kanag
Hi, many a times when I got chemical peels at the derm office, they left the peels overnight for me - and I really saw a visible difference. So I started using 10% glycol acid at home - overnight with great results. Now I want to switch up the percentage to maybe 50%. Should I leave that too overnight ? Thanks
