Open or Lap RNY is either one safer or more effective than the other?

I was hopeing to go with Lap RNY, due to the fact that their will be less scaring, but my main goal is to no longer be fat. Can anyone tell me if one procedure is safer or more effective than the other, it would be greatly appreciated.
