If I wear eyelid tape 22 hours a day for three months, will it make a new permanent crease in my eyelid?

I already have double eyelids, but my eyelids are uneven. It is hard to see that I have a double eyelid on my right eye. Also, will doing this stretch the skin on my eyelid causing it to become saggy?
