The main difference between the two is that the lasers used in professional clinics are much more powerful than a home IPL so they can in theory end the hair growth permanently, whereas home IPL stuns the hair for a while.
The price of laser for whole body treatment would usually be several thousand £, whereas a home IPL is around £300.
I'm definitely happy with the IPL, mine was the Philips Lumea, but I do have the ideal fair skin/dark hair for this method to work.
