Make Up for Scar After Rhinoplasty? (photo)

texjnrAug 21, 2013
Dear all, How soon after rhinoplasty am I able to use a camouflage make up for my scar? I am 4 weeks post op and the scar is a thin reddish pink line. It's not too visible from the front but can be seen from the side due to my tip projection. Thanks, Terri
