Should I be concerned with my incision opening? (photo)

sadie133
I am 5 1/2 weeks post op after a Breast lift and implants, with dissolvable stitches. I noticed a day ago I have a “wound” like opening on one of my Incision lines. No swelling, or pain. Does this look like a concern or can I care for this wound myself with bandages and polysporin?
