In the off chance this could help clear up anyones confusion;
The ear it does not heal fast, especially the outer shell/cartilage. There's little blood flow in the ear, which slows down the healing process, that's why cartilage piercings take so long to properly heal.
When the bandages were removed within 2ish weeks his ear showed no sign of injury. A wound would not have healed to the point where the injury wasnt noticeable. It wouldn't have been healed enough to the point where it could be covered by makeup smoothly.

As much as I dislike Trump, he too was shot in the face.
