“Can makeup done on a plastic surgery area cause reactions?”
I recently underwent plastic surgery around my chin area. Usually I use foundation, but I've been nervous to use it in that area. The skin has healed but is there any chance it can still cause a reaction?

Hello, usually I tell my patients to avoid makeup for 10 days. However, Sometimes the skin becomes sensitive for a few months after surgery. Make sure your makeup is hypoallergenic. You may also visit my website at DrRoya.com for further information.
Once the skin has healed, make up should not be a problem
Yes it can. Check with your surgeon first for advice. Start with a hypoallergenic applied only to a tiny area to see how your skin reacts first.
