How soon could you shave your pits/use deodorant after an arm lift? How soon could you resume arm exercises?

Bonus: no Hair growth in arm pit region post surgery. Ditto clean lines following LBL and thigh lift in pubic region where hair does grow up to incision line. Arms - no hair. This was expected for me. As for deodorant - 3 weeks As I do not use anti-perspirant I can not speak to that. 🌼🌼

Whoops - arm exercise was 6 weeks to prevent pulling on skin and increasing scar - arm skin is sooo thin. Also I use the silicone scar tape rather than a topical cream. For about 5 months. Arm scars were the ones I hoped to minimize.

Six weeeeekkks! Oof. I'm not worried about what the scar will look like... but I will be so ready to get back to exercising!
