Is my Triple Eyelid Permanent?

Question

So I purposely made an extra crease in my left eyelid and the next morning i woke up i had triple eyelids. I am naturally double lidded. However it has been like this for 4 days now. Is it permanent? I am very worried. Also it makes my left eye feel heavy and its uncomfortable i have had it before but i did not do it on purpose and it only lasted a few hours.

I'm not quite sure what you mean but I am assuming you meant that U used to tape or glue to create increase.  Hopefully as the weeks and months pass you won't have any issues and return to normal.  As you age the collagen content and fat content of the upper eyelids decreases making multiple folds or creases more likely.  I see this very frequently in my practice and correction of it requires incision technique Asian eyelid surgery.I'll attach some informationChase Lay, MDAsian eyelid surgery specialist

I am guessing that you used double sided tape to create the crease. If this is the case, this should resolve on its own. If you have more information, please provide it.
