Will I see results after having one ZO Medical 3 step peel?

I had the ZO Medical 3 step stimulation peel done yesterday. I slept over night without washing my face after treatment like I was instructed. This morning gently washed my face and applied 2nd packet of 6% retinol followed by Revatol cream by ZO. It’s been 36 hours since my appt for peel. And my skin isn’t peeling. It looks pretty much the same? I am anxious for the peeling to begin so I can see some results. Is it possible it didn’t work?
