Is there a good makeup that can cover up bruises from injection?

Do you have a make-up that you could recommend to cover up any bruising from juvaderm injections? Thank you, Angiet

If someone has a great answer to this, I would love to hear it!  We have tried many things in the office over the years.  What works best for us is to put a very thin layer of concealer on, use a light layer of powder over to set it and then repeat it two to three times to build up more coverage.  The last layer should be powder.  If you are very careful, it won’t look too cakey.

Here’s more information to help prevent bruising after Juvederm in the first place!   Hope this helps.  Dr. I

One of the best investments in your skin is your daily skincare. Why? Because you can prevent many problems with blotchy skin color, lack of glow, texture, some types of acne, and fine lines with good skincare products. You can also correct some of these problems with effective skincare products. Great skincare is often more expensive because quality ingredients are expensive. Some companies spend on research/development which benefits all of us and adds to the cost. Are they worth it? In general - yes! I have handpicked some of what I consider to be the best skin care products, and offer them for sale on SkinTour's shop. This is based on my team and I's testing and research at our clinic. Many of the products are in my own regimen. What could be better than using skin care products a dermatologist uses?!
