Makeup after Plastic Surgery by Dallas Plastic Surgeon Diane Gibby, FACS

Concealers are thicker and more opaque than regular foundation makeup. They can cover healed incision lines as well as scars or bruises on your face or body. Concealer can be used to hide the visible incision lines, along with the surrounding discoloration, that may follow facelift or eyelid surgery.

Choose a concealer that's opaque and waterproof, but creamy enough that it doesn't pull on your skin when you apply it. If you can find a concealer that closely matches your skin tone, you may not have to use a foundation on top of it.
