Food Safety in Puerto Vallarta for Plastic Surgery

If you are coming to Puerto Vallarta for Plastic Surgery or for other reasons as well, you want to understand the food and water health safety before you arrive. 

Nearly every single hotel-accomodation has a purified water system. All ice and water in restaurants will be purified. Food also. Normally, what happens is that people arrive to Puerto Vallarta, bake on the beach all day drinking beer after beer, hit the happy hours with snacks, eat new and heavy and spicy food, dance in the discos til the wee hours doing tequila shots, wake up in the morning sick and then blame the water! Their bodies are in shock!

The sun and alcohol can be a lethal combination so take it easy, especially the first few days! If you feel more comfortable with bottled water brushing your teeth, etc then go for it. You will see nearly everyone walking around with bottled water and it is available everywhere. I would not recommend drinking water from the water fountains in the streets though. Otherwise, you should be fine.
