Exercise after brachioplasty? (Photo)

Asked By:ranamoharam in Egypt, EG

Hello. I lost 135 pounds about 6 years ago and had a brachioplasty 4 weeks ago. I wanted to know recommended arm exercises/stretches to ensure best appearance and toning. My surgeon said I could start exercising again but to take it slow. My wounds have healed except for a small opening in my right Axilla. Thank you
