Will my scar be noticeable with a 4 guard haircut? I'm almost 7 weeks out from an FUT procedure. (Photos)

I got my first haircut post surgery a few days ago. Will my hair eventually even out? I'm concerned maybe the scar didn't close properly. My Dr said I'd be fine with a 2.5 or 3 guard. Am I paranoid? Or is my scar not healing well? Must I wait longer to really know? Or can you tell now? Thanks. I
