Supporting Health Care Professionals in Bariatric Care
Health care professionals play a critical role supporting individuals living with obesity. Our support garments are an important part of your patients’ care plan. Our high-performance support garments are designed to address the unique challenges faced by patients undergoing medical treatment for obesity.
Addressing the Complications of Excess Skin and Tissue
When patients experience significant weight loss resulting from treatment for obesity, they can have very loose skin and excess tissue. One of the most common issues is the development of an abdominal panniculus, which can cause discomfort, restrict mobility, and impact the patient's quality of life. There can also be significant excess skin on arms, legs, chest, back and buttocks.
Collaboration with Professionals
We aim to collaborate with a wide range of health care professionals who are dedicated to the care of individuals with obesity, including:
- Bariatric medicine specialists
- Bariatric surgeons
- Plastic surgeons
- Family physicians
- Nurses
- Occupational therapists
- Physiotherapists
- Dietitians
- Psychologists
