Pannus support

Abdominal Pannus Support  The pannus ( panniculous) is  abdominal pannus is the area of excess skin and fat that hangs over the pubic region .  There is different stages.  Please see our stage chart for more information.  Because there is different stages we have created different types of support.  There is five stages or grades.

• Grade 1 panniculus will just cover the pubic hair line, up to the mons pubis
• Grade 2 fully covers the genitals
• Grade 3 extends enough to cover the upper thigh
• Grade 4 reaches down to the mid-thigh
• Grade 5 covers the knees or even lower

At present our support goals are to lift the pannus and provide compression to the pannus.  All supports are custom for now.  A measurement form will need to be filled out.  And a medical person such as a therapist nurse, physician will need to do the referring and the measurments.
