Infected neck lift scars? -10 days post op. (photos)

I get faint touching/looking at my scars but I have been applying Fucidin cream every day (at first 3 times a day, then 2) as instructed. I asked someone to take photos with my iPad today to see how they are getting on because they still seem sore. Photos are below. The right ear is worst, but the white area is not wet or sleepy, it is dry and sounds like a dry scab when touched with a cotton earbud. Are these signs of infection?
