Sizing for the Abdominal Binder?

Can you help me? What size binder will I need?

Measure yourself around the incision area (this will be between your belly button and your hips, not your waist).

  • 24″-30″ fits our “Small”
  • 30″-36″ fits our “Medium”
  • 36″-42″ fits our “Large”
  • 42″-48″ fits our “X-Large”
  • 48″-54″ fits our “2X-Large”

If you can’t decide which size, even with the size chart – especially if you are between two sizes, here is more information to help.

We usually encourage our customers to go up to the next size if you are between sizes. Swelling will often push you into another a larger size.
