Asked By:Laurensic in Chicago, IL

I am 2 weeks post gastric sleeve surgery and will need a Panniculectomy once fully healed. I already qualify for one now based on my anatomy and my surgeon and PCP expect the pannus is increase in size as more weight is lost. I'm wondering if the Panniculectomy also covers removal of skin in the mons pubis area or if I should expect to pay for that out of pocket.
