Does Less Expensive IPL Mean Less Results?

I've been shopping around and finding some great deals on IPL so am considering going to another spa for my next one. Is there any correlation between less expensive treatments and outcomes? Also, one is offering a "light chemecal peel" with the IPL -is that safe?
