After receiving an Alarplasty, is this normal healing?

I had an alar base reduction and it is 11 days post-op. I’m just wondering if I should be seeing an indented red strip in between healthy skin where the incisions were made. So the incision looks like a shallow cut, a little indent of red healing tissues with the flaps of skin on either side of it. That doesn’t mean the stitches didn’t work, correct? Like my skin still should be a little separated and cut where that red indent/line is? I also have a bit of white crusting there it seems.
