Can I go from a parallel crease to a tapered crease? (photos)

Asked By:pandagiggles in San Francisco, CA

Hi, I have gotten asian eyelids done 4 years ago and hasn't been happy with my result. I was looking for a natural look but the surgeon gave me a high parallel crease. I have a hard time opening my eyes in the morning at times and they look puffy as well. Many people has noticed a dramatic change in my facial feature as if I slightly have caucasian in me. I assume that if I went from parallel crease to tapered, the crease will look lower and more natural? Thanks
