If you have been considering lap band surgery you may be aware that the procedure can be done in Mexico and for considerably less money than in America. However one thing to consider before having the surgery is the number of lap band deaths in Mexico.
The choice to have the surgery done there is made mostly because of the price rather than safety.
As the news of the high lap band deaths in Mexico increases, more and more people are becoming concern about there safety with having the procedure done overseas. What is surprising is the fact that if you were to do a google search on this topic its hard to find any solid information that could be of any help for these people.
Without adequate information out there, many are turning to rumors and speculations about the lab band surgery in Mexico.
So what’s the verdict? Are Americans dying right and left in Mexico from cheap lap band surgery? Or is it perfectly safe to have lap band surgery in Mexico, and therefore better, because it’s much cheaper?
Well here is the good the bad and the ugly about the situation. The good news is the rumors seems to have no basis or evidence of truth to them.
These rumors are just that, rumors. No real facts about the deaths related to the lap band surgery have been proven. In fact, the Federal government have not issued any special alerts about the issue related to Americans dying from surgery due to the lap band in Mexico. The only alerts out there is in regards to traveling to Mexico, these are due to the increase in the crime rate and drug related incidences.
If you were to visit the State Department’s website you will find that the crime rate in Mexico to be staggering, and that the lap band deaths in Mexico is much lower than you were originally thought to believe.
