All surgeries imply a risk of life, even the simplest one. The advances in surgical technologies and techniques have reduced greatly the risks but thre are still cases of fatalities caused by unexpected complications.
The Death Rate from complications related to Liposuction is about 1 in 5,000, although the actual death risk when liposuction is performed by a good doctor is somewhat minimal.
The death rate within the first 30 days of gastric bypass is normally quoted to be at about 1 in 250. The long term risk of death is considerably less than the long term risk of severe obesity.
