Affordable Solution to Weight Loss

The conventional non-surgical weight loss methods like strict diet regime
and regular physical exercise may be enough for some to shed those extra pounds but for severely obese people, even major lifestyle changes aren't enough and are unsuccessful at achieving sufficient weight loss.

For people who struggle to lose that unwanted flab every day with traditional weight loss methods, bariatric surgery is the only option to get rid of that abnormal or excessive fat accumulation.

A variety of bariatric surgery procedures including laparoscopic gastric banding (lap band), vertical sleeve gastrectomy, roux-en-y gastric bypass, biliopancreatic diversion bypass (BPD) and gastric balloon have become increasingly popular among morbidly obese.

An estimated one-third or 33.8% of adults in the United States are suffering from obesity, a medical problem that can increase an individual's risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes or cancer.

Bariatric weight loss surgeries have fast gained popularity amongst obese patients in parallel with the soaring rate of obesity around the world.

Unfortunately, the obesity treatments and operations are extremely expensive in several parts of the world. Moreover, most of the insurance companies do not often cover weight-loss surgery procedures, which may hinder average people's hopes of getting that perfect body shape by shedding those extra pounds.

If you or someone you know is severely obese and tired of finding affordable weight-loss treatment in home land, moving to any foreign country to have the treatment may be an ideal answer to your weight-related miseries.

In recent years countries like Mexico, India and Thailand have earned quite a reputation as flagship value-for-money healthcare destinations for inexpensive and super quality obesity treatments. Today, more and more international patients, mainly from developed economies like US, Canada, and UK, are seeking affordable yet excellent quality and best in care weight loss procedures in these countries.

This price differential is mainly due to the fact that the cost of living in many developing countries is low. Cheap labor cost also brings down healthcare cost in these countries.

The best thing about getting obesity treatment abroad is that obese patients can receive a whole host of bariatric procedures without burning a hole in their pocket.

For instance, Mexico's proximity to some American states, including San Diego and California, makes this country a popular choice of majority of Americans and Canadians who are increasingly choosing to visit the bordering country for excellent quality, low-cost weight-loss treatments.

As a result of global medical tourism boom, a multitude of hospitals, clinics and surgery centers have sprouted up on every corner of the world, especially in developing economies, offering cutting edge medical services at very affordable costs.

The leading bariatric clinics around the world are accredited either by JCI, ISO or an equivalent standard-setting organization, adequately catering to a multitude of foreign patients seeking affordable obesity surgery procedures.

There are several accredited hospitals which specialize in bariatric surgery. Doctors and surgeons in these hospitals are highly qualified and specialize in treatment of obesity, offering a multitude of easy-on-the-pocket treatments to worldwide obese patients.

Using the most advanced technology and surgical equipments available, the expert doctors help obese patients get control of their weight situation and get their life back. Most importantly, no compromise is done on the quality of obesity treatment, despite fairly lesser cost.

Apart from the sky-scraping cost of surgical obesity treatment, patients in industrialized countries face longer waiting queues to get the treatment. Patients who want quicker access to treatment for their weight issues can flock to countries like Thailand or India, where the waiting time is almost nil.

If you are suffering from obesity and seeking weight loss treatment, but fretting about the cost of the procedure in your home land, having weight-loss surgery in any neighboring land could cut your surgical budget by thousands.
