Brazillian Belly Button During Tummy Tuck?

Hi KTM1986,

There is no official technique known as the Brazilian belly button.  This is just a name that a plastic surgeon gave to her own technique.  What's important is that you see a lot of before and after photos and you like the surgeon's results.  It's also important that your doctor is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has performed many abdominoplasties.

Best of luck to you!

Lots of surgeons are able to make the opening to your belly button very attractive, sometimes even more attractive than the original.  You will have to ask the surgeon to see before and after photos of the belly buttons to see what they are calling Nrazilian belly buttons!

Hi! As previously mentioned, the Brazilian belly button is just a nice marketing touch (how about a "Bahama Mommy Makeover!) that helps to generate some interest. Ultimately, it doesn't matter what you call it as long as it looks good! The best surgeon's will alter technique to fit your unique anatomy.

Best Regards,

It's not an officially described technique, but more like minor changes to enhance how a belly button folds onto itself to create a particular shape.

Your own belly button probably determines what it will look like afterwards more than any technique.  I have heard of Rodeo Drive belly button, Beverly Hills belly button, and now Brazilian belly button. Not sure what any of these mean other than good marketing sound bites. Make sure you  look at before and afters concentrating on the belly button.
