A face lift should not any negative effects on Invisalign or vise versa

Ryan Sellinger, DMD answers: Will Face Lift before Invisalign have an effect on the impressions?

I am planning on having a Face Lift and I am also doing Invisaligns. I am scheduled to get my impressions before I have the lift. Will the surgery change anything as far as the impressions are concerned? Should I wait until after the surgery to have the impressions done? Thank you.

Invisalign solely effects the dental complex, and should therefore have no bearing on a face lift.

Impressions for Invisalign can be done before or after the surgery.

A facelift does not affect anything in your mouth unless a "gum" incision is used for a deep facelift. This as well should not impact your teeth in any way.
