8. The support assembly of claim 7 wherein in the dressed configuration, the pelvic support layer is positioned in between the first assembly arm and an incision support layer.

9. The support assembly of claim 7 wherein, in the dressed configuration, the first assembly arm is fastened to the second assembly arm at a plurality of fastening points.

10. The support assembly of claim 7 wherein the support assembly is movable between the dressed configuration and the partially dressed configuration without removing the assembly body from the abdomen of the user.

11. The support assembly of claim 7 wherein in the undressed configuration, the first assembly arm, the second assembly arm, and the pelvic support layer are substantially parallel to one another.

12. A support assembly for supporting a transverse incision site at a peri-pelvic area of a user, the user having an abdomen, at least one leg, and a groin region, the support assembly comprising:

an assembly body that is configured to encircle (i) the abdomen of the user, and (ii) the at least one leg of the user, the assembly body including a pelvic support layer that is configured to provide a transverse supportive force to the transverse incision site of the user; and

a first assembly arm that is coupled to the pelvic support layer, the first assembly arm extending anteriorly from the assembly body, the first assembly arm being configured to extend from the groin region of the user and secure to one of the first assembly arm and the assembly body to adjust the transverse supportive force to the transverse incision site at the peri-pelvic area;

wherein the support assembly is movable between (i) a dressed configuration wherein the assembly body encircles the user, and the first assembly arm is fastened to one of the first assembly arm and the assembly body, (ii) a partially dressed configuration wherein the assembly body encircles the user, and the first assembly arm is detached from one of the first assembly arm and the assembly body, the transverse incision site at the peri-pelvic area being uncovered by the assembly body and the first assembly arm in the partially dressed configuration, and (iii) an undressed configuration wherein the assembly body is decoupled from the user, and the first assembly arm is detached from one of the first assembly arm and the assembly body.

13. The support assembly of claim 12 wherein the assembly body includes a groin portion that is configured to cover the groin region of the user, the groin portion being positioned adjacent to the pelvic support layer.

14. The support assembly of claim 12 wherein the assembly body includes an edge band that encircles and is configured to conform to a portion of the abdomen of the user, the edge band being at least partially formed from an elastic material.

15. The support assembly of claim 12 wherein, in the dressed configuration, the pelvic support layer is positioned in between the first assembly arm and an incision support layer.

16. The support assembly of claim 12 wherein, in the undressed configuration, at least a portion of the assembly body has a somewhat hourglass-shaped configuration.

17. The support assembly of claim 12 further comprising a second assembly arm that is coupled to a second arm securer of the assembly body, the second assembly arm being detachably fastenable to the first assembly arm, the second arm securer being coupled to the assembly body.

18. The support assembly of claim 12 wherein the first assembly arm has a first arm end that is detachably fastenable to the assembly body.

19. The support assembly of claim 18 wherein the first arm end includes a first arm fastener that detachably fastens the first assembly arm to at least one of the assembly body and the first assembly arm.

20. A support assembly for supporting a transverse incision site at a peri-pelvic area of a user, the user having an abdomen, at least one leg, and a groin region, the support assembly comprising:

an assembly body that is configured to encircle (i) the abdomen of the user, and (ii) the at least one leg of the user;

a first assembly arm that extends anteriorly from the assembly body, the first assembly arm being configured to extend from the groin region of the user and secure to the assembly body to adjust a transverse supportive force to the transverse incision site at the peri-pelvic area;

a pelvic support layer that is coupled to the first assembly arm, the pelvic support layer being simultaneously positionable with the first assembly arm; and

a second assembly arm that is secured to the assembly body, the assembly body including a second arm securer, wherein the second assembly arm is coupled to the second arm securer of the assembly body;

wherein the support assembly is movable between (i) a dressed configuration wherein the assembly body encircles the user and the second assembly arm is fastened to the first assembly arm, and the pelvic support layer is positioned in between the first assembly arm and an incision support layer, (ii) a partially dressed configuration wherein the assembly body encircles the user and the second assembly arm is detached from the first assembly arm, and the pelvic support layer is positioned away from the transverse incision site of the user, and (iii) an undressed configuration wherein the assembly body is decoupled from the user and the second assembly arm is detached from the first assembly arm.
