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.

Answer: Invisalign Following Facelift Surgery
I wouldn't be concerned about having Invisalign done following facelift surgery. The facelift procedure should not affect the bony anatomy at all in terms of the maxilla (upper jaw) and mandible (lower jaw).

Answer: Facelift will not affect bony structures Face Lifts primarily affect the soft tissues of the face and head and neck but do not usually affect the bony or dental structures. You should not be concerned about having a Face Lift performed either before or after Invisalign treatement or treatment planning.

Answer: A facelift will not affect Invisalign impressions A facelift will not effect your invisalign impressions. However, your orthodontia can affect your facelift results if you are undergoing movement of the jaws with a osteotmy type procedure. Most patients who are undergoing Invisalign will unlikely be undergoing a jaw moving procedure like this.
