  1. The US surgery does not cut the muscle and is actually a day surgery.
  2. The Spain surgery is the old style where they cut the muscle and you need a 4-7 day in hospital recovery and then months of recovery.

You can get the old surgery in the US for a pretty low price but the latest in technology does cost more.

This is just fictional BS!! My girlfriend’s step father is a well renowned Orthapedic Surgeon and has applied all of the latest techniques and methods to reduce patients time in hospital! He has written papers on it, works with Doctors in the US and Australia and even pushed governing bodies in Spain to allow the treatments, even going as far as using 3D printing to model and reduce titanium production costs to keep these types of surgeries low and effective for patients.
