From what I can tell (the photos are very grainy), the wound appears to be healing fine. I suggest you continue treatment as your vet recommended for now. I strongly recommend you take her back to your vet for a progress check-up in about 5-7 days. They will be able to tell you better if it looks to be healing well since they saw the initial injury.
