Double eyelid surgery

If your surgery was recent, may be best to wait until the healing is completed. Sometimes residual swelling or scar tissue can create an abnormal crease. If surgery was over 6 months ago, then the crease reforming "on it's own" is less likely. There are techniques to rebuild the eyelid crease. Some include non-surgical, such as fillers. There are other surgical methods to improve the crease.

Basically you have to reset the crease to the new level and if it is lower you will most likely need to harvest tissue and graft in the area.  For a triple fold, you need to essentially fill the area of the triple fold with tissue. I have some videos on my website that describes this.
