Are all IPL machines the same?

Hi, there tend to be quite big discrepancies when it comes to the price of IPL per session in different salons, why? If they all use similar equipment that delivers the same results I'll obviously choose the cheaper one, as long as doctors here, which I opinion respect, will confirm there's no difference between them, thanks!
