Got a beard transplant just a few days ago. Everything went well and my skin will be all healed up in a week or two. However, some parts of my face will most likely be covered in some redness for 3 - 6 months, esp my cheeks and chin area.

What would be a simple and straightforward way to conceal this redness by using makeup? :)

Thank you!

    Don’t underestimate the power of thermal spa water sprays. They are great at reducing redness caused by inflammation. I swear by them. There are a few out there but the two I know of are Avene and La Roche Posay. They are sold at pharmacies. I would spray it on and leave for 3 mins then very gently tap or massage it into the skin, you can tissue off any excess at this point, then apply whatever other products you’re gonna be using.

    Don’t be fooled into thinking it’s just the coolness of the water that does the job. The Avene one has a high amount of silica, which is a very effective anti inflammatory. I don’t know what the active ingredient in the La Roche is. I use the Avene one, I find it very good for reducing the redness of acne.
