Is an uneven incision 1 month post-op something to worry about? (photos)

YoungWitch786
Hi Drs, I’m one month post op after breast lift and implants and very concerned with my healing so far. I was finally instructed to remove the steri strips today and that’s when I noticed how lopsided the incision line is and how it doesn’t appear to connect evenly...there is a small ledge of skin poking above the line...just seems like the skin isn’t coming together and is mismatched. Is this normal and will this even out? Thank you for taking a look.
