VIO Med Spa Expands Atlanta Footprint with New Franchise Agreement

July 13, 2026 // Franchising.com // ATLANTA – VIO Med Spa is continuing its expansion across Georgia with a new franchise agreement in the Atlanta market. The agreement will further expand VIO Med Spa’s presence throughout Metro Atlanta, with the first location expected to open in 2027.

Metro Atlanta remains one of the Southeast's fastest-growing metropolitan areas and continues to attract investment across the wellness, healthcare, and service sectors.

"This agreement reflects a trend we're seeing across the system as more experienced business owners look to diversify into wellness-focused concepts," said Ryan Rao, Chief Development Officer at VIO Med Spa. "Entrepreneurs are increasingly drawn to categories with strong consumer demand, recurring engagement, and long-term growth potential, and VIO is well-positioned at the intersection of aesthetics, wellness, and longevity."

The expansion is led by Aine Burns, an experienced entrepreneur whose career spans weight loss, fitness, training and real estate. A seasoned business owner and leader, Burns brings a proven track record of building high-performing teams and delivering exceptional client experiences. She was drawn to VIO Med Spa's physician-guided approach and believes the brand is well positioned to meet the growing demand for proactive wellness and aesthetic services.

“We’re living through an aging renaissance, and I became fascinated by the ways wellness, preventative health, and longevity-focused services are helping people take a more proactive approach to how they age and feel,” said Burns. “As I evaluated different brands, VIO consistently stood out because of its physician-guided model, commitment to innovation, and investment in franchisee success. The training, support, and focus on education made it clear this was a brand built for long-term growth.”

While Burns is focused on opening her first location, she sees Atlanta as a market with significant long-term potential and plans to grow alongside the brand through additional locations in the years ahead.

A Physician-Guided Model Built for Scalable Growth

Built on established clinical protocols and medical oversight, VIO Med Spa delivers a range of medical-grade aesthetic and wellness services including injectables, skin rejuvenation, laser treatments, and facials which are designed to prioritize safety, consistency, and results.
