I had alread gone to a plastic surgeon and had the scar revision. This is the new scar formed after the operation. It is still 3 months old. However my anxiety got worse because the new scar is look worse than the old one.
I want to temporarily conceal the scar. Can you suggest any camouflaging technique in order to conceal the scar? Products that I should use. I really need help because this scar is affecting my social life and worst my academic.

Dermablend
The mainstay of camouflage makeup is Dermablend. Prior to lasers we use to recommend this for Port Wine Stains. It is very thick and can cover nearly any mark. It must be matched to your skin tone.
