I has double eyelid surgery two years ago, but the incisions were made too low. I don't have enough platform to wear eyeshadow. Would it be possible to put new incisions above the previous ones to raise my creases? I know the common way to raise creases is to remove more skin , but can it be accomplished without removing anymore skin? Because I think I already had too much skin removed in the previous surgery. Can this be combined with medial epicanthoplasty to form high parallel outside fold?

You can ride a roller coaster after double eyelid surgery. But, I would speak to your doctor to be sure. Usually after a month, most of the swelling is gone and such activities such as roller coasters or airplanes shouldn’t affect your results.
It would be difficult to create an epicanthic fold in someone who does not already have it. I think it would be a mistake to try to accomplish this. It will likely not turn out very good.
Perhaps you have not accurately summarized what your surgeon actually told you. However it is improbable that placing a dissolvable suture will address the triple fold. It is not appropriate to suture the upper eyelid crease to the eye brow, even temporarily. It is accurate...
