Does Less Expensive IPL Mean Less Results?

Hi! When shopping, there is no reason to spend a ton of money for a great result. At the same time, you should never let cost be the deciding factor. There are a variety of brands of lasers that treat pigment and they all work really well. We have four lasers here to treat pigment and I find that what matters is the age of the laser or hand-piece and the knowledge of the provider. I recommend calling around and asking how long the provider has been certified in the lasers, approximately how many they do in a week, and then also ask if you can see before and after photos! 
I hope this helps and good luck! 

The BBL/ipl costs will vary across the country. Our cost starts at $150/per treatments depending on the scope of the treatment. We offer free consultation where we can be able to provide fees more accurately. It is important to have the treating physician involved with the treatment. I personally consult with patients, plan the procedure, and perform the treatment.

Regarding: "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?"

Hard one to know for sure. While expensive does not assure you of quality, it is rare to get quality when buying cheap.

When it comes to your health and appearance you should NOT be "shopping around for great deals". There usually are multiple reasons why some services are cheap and as a result, in reality, they are far from being "great deals". Plastic surgeons are called upon on a weekly basis to reverse the results of "great deals" in Botox, Liposuction (especially Laser liposuction), a variety of lasers etc.

By all means, DO your research but do not fall for the hype. Because, if you choose poorly it may cost you a LOT more than you think you are saving.
