Our Take
Capuchinho is a rhinoplasty and facial-surgery specialist with strong academic credentials - SBCP, ISAPS, and SBR membership plus a Swiss fellowship - making him a credible Belo Horizonte option for nose and facial work specifically. The clinic site is Portuguese-only with no published international-patient track, so non-Portuguese speakers should confirm English-language coordination and get a written quote before planning travel. Not a body-contouring or BBL destination.
