The surgery went well, and now all that's left is making sure the shape turns out beautifully. After surgery, you can't move your arms a lot. When I tell people not to move their arms, here's how I put it: You have to live like you don't have arms.
Other than eating and brushing your teeth, use your arms as little as possible. Even when you get out of bed, you might push off like this without thinking, and all of that is bad. I've even had a case where the surgery went really well,
and the patient was smiling, saying goodbye, heading home, and on the way out of this room, they yanked the door open, and suddenly the breast swelled right up, and they had to have surgery again. Be as careful with your arms as you can.
“I'm someone with no arms.” How would someone with no arms get home? They'd ring the bell and say, “Could you open the door for me?” People who are really in pain do exactly that, but if it's not that bad, use both hands, slowly.
It's doing things suddenly that puts force on them. Doing things slowly is actually fine. My part is done. Now you just need to take good care of it.
