Double Suture Technique (DST) - Permanent?

downtowngal
I got double sutures on my eyelids 10 years ago--but I read everywhere that this procedure is not permanent and it has gotten me worried. Mine has been fine but I worry that it won't last forever...if it has lasted this long, what are the chances that it will remain permanent? Aside from my wanting the crease to be larger (about 10 mm instead of what it is now...), I've been ultimately happy with it.
