Brazilian plastic surgeons are known for expertise in body contouring, Brazilian butt lift (BBL), abdominoplasty, rhinoplasty, and breast procedures.
Cosmetic procedures in Brazil cost 40–60% less than in the US. A Brazilian butt lift costs $3,500–$6,000 (vs. $8,000–$15,000 in the US), breast augmentation $3,000–$5,500 (vs. $6,000–$12,000), tummy tuck $3,000–$5,000 (vs. $6,000–$12,000), and rhinoplasty $2,500–$5,000 (vs. $8,000–$15,000).
