Will the gap in my incisions after an alar base reduction heal spontaneously or should I be concerned? (Photos)

I got my cast and stiches removed yesterday. The nurse said that is no sign of infection and healing will just take time. I did notice a gap in the incision line which the nurse dismissed that but I can definitely see it... Are these gaps usually filled with tissue during the healing process making the skin smooth again? I know there will be some scarring no matter how good I take care of my incision but a gap does seem like it will make permanent scarring more prominent.
