I just had a VI peel done 3 days ago and the skin is starting to peel, but the new skin is always burning. Is this normal?

I have kept it moisturized and have not even went outside since having the procedure to be sure to avoid sun. The fresh skin under what has peeled off is burning pretty badly. Just not sure if this is normal?
