Is this a yeast infection after Labiaplasty? (photos)

Trishhh
Hi! I got laser Labiaplasty 1 week ago and haven't had any pain since day 3. I've finished my antibiotics yesterday (day 6), and noticed on day 4 a slight build up of white substance along the insision line where the disolvable stitches are. I noticed this start to happen when I stopped wearing a gauze to absorb the moisture. I'm just needing advice if this is just a moist scab causing it to be white, or a yeast infection? Also, I am in no pain at all, just very slight burning sensation occasionally :)
