Is it possible to change a double lid to a monolid? (Photos)

Question

I’m female and my height is 154 cm tall my weight is 38,7 and my skin type is combination skin.I am not Asian but I always had monolids when I was around 1-16 but now I don’t have them anymore and at first I was happy because I used to hate them but now I feel like I lost the most special thing about myself,I’m wondering if I can get my double lid made into a monolid again,it might not be as important as others questions but I really want them back.

From the information included, it sounds like you’ve developed very slight hooding in the upper eyelid, which you now perceive as a double lid. 
Removing a small amount of skin may reduce some of the early hooding.
I would probably steer patient away from doing this procedure.
What your experience is simply normal early aging signs.
Eventually, the eyelids are going to do this.
It’s the difference between eyelids of children and adults and eventually older adults.
Having surgery doesn’t always stop the aging process.
A procedure like this could easily create Regret because the outcome may not be exactly what you were hoping for.
Best,
