Understanding Thigh Lift Surgery in South Jordan

Weight loss represents a significant personal achievement, but excess skin can sometimes remain a challenge. For individuals in South Jordan experiencing sagging skin on their thighs, a thigh lift surgery offers a transformative solution. Dr. Jerry Chidester specializes in thighplasty, a precise surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and create a more contoured lower body profile.

Benefits of Thigh Lift Surgery

  • Eliminates excess and loose skin
  • Minimizes surplus fat deposits
  • Tones and firms thigh contours
  • Improves overall body profile
  • Reduces chafing and skin irritation
  • Enhances personal confidence

Ideal Candidates for Thigh Lift

Thighplasty is particularly beneficial for patients who have experienced significant weight loss, typically over 100 pounds. The procedure also helps individuals dealing with skin laxity due to aging, pregnancy, or natural body changes. Patients with excess skin on inner or outer thighs are excellent candidates for this transformative surgical approach.

Surgical Procedure Details

Dr. Chidester performs thigh lift surgery under general anesthesia, strategically placing incisions in natural body creases. The procedure involves removing excess skin, potentially using liposuction to eliminate stubborn fat deposits. Careful surgical techniques ensure the skin is tightened and secured, creating a more refined and sculpted appearance.

Recovery and Expectations

Thigh lift surgery typically takes 2-3 hours, with an overall recovery period of 6-8 weeks. Patients can expect initial bruising and swelling, with gradual improvement over time. Dr. Chidester provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to support optimal healing and minimize scarring.

Customized Surgical Approach

Understanding that each patient's body and goals are unique, Dr. Chidester offers personalized consultations to develop a tailored surgical plan. Many patients choose to combine thigh lift surgery with complementary procedures like tummy tucks or body lifts for comprehensive body contouring.

I just had my 3 month checkup after having a Mommy takeover and I am so happy with my results. I was so self-conscious about my muffin top and the loose skin on my stomach. I worked out almost everyday trying to get my flat stomach back that I had before I had my kids. I tried all of the physical therapy to help with my diastasis but it wasn't working and I was getting frustrated. A girl I follow on Instagram tagged Dr. Chidester and that was it, I knew he was the surgeon I wanted to go to. He is an amazing surgeon but he also really cares about his patients. I was extremely nervous about my surgery but as soon as I got there he put my mind at ease. If you are considering a surgery like this Dr. Chiddy is the one to go to. I know he has a long wait list but he is worth it. Thank you Dr Chiddy for giving me back my body-ody-ody-ody.

Jerry performed a full mommy makeover on me 14 weeks ago, including a tummy tuck, muscle repair, liposuction to the outer thighs, breast lift, and fat grafting. From the moment I stepped into his office, the staff was incredibly sweet and helpful, making me feel at ease throughout the entire process. Dr. Chidester himself is not only highly skilled but also personable, taking the time to understand my goals for the surgery. He knew exactly what needed to be done to achieve the shape I wanted. I had severe diastasis recti with a 3-inch separation, and thanks to Dr. Chidester, my stomach is now flat and I have more stability and strength than ever before. Before the surgery, I had so many worries and concerns, but the staff was always there to validate my feelings and address all of my questions and worries. They took the time to make sure that I felt comfortable and confident in my decision. I’m so happy with my experience with Jerry Chidester and his team and I recommend him to anyone wanting surgery.

Dr Chiddy is a talented, skilled and KIND surgeon. I saw him for MMO last year. I am soooo happy with my results! He takes his time with each patient. I love how the appts didn’t feel rushed or like I was just another paycheck. He really cares about getting the result the patient is looking for me. And he does it in a safe way. He never made me feel like I NEEDED to change anything about my body. That it was all in how I felt about it and what would make ME happy! I’ve been to other Plastic docs that pointed out multiple other things that “needed fixed” that I hadn’t even been concerned about. Dr Chiddy is a total professional and really cares. He even called me the night after my surgery to check how I was doing once I got settled in at home. Besides his awesome bedside manner, I am so happy with his technique and skill. His staff is caring, patient and understanding. I Highly recommended Dr Chiddy!

I could not have asked for a better experience for my breast augmentation. Dr. Chidester and his staff are hands down the best. It was definitely worth the 2 year wait to get this procedure done by him!
