is it True that If I try to Expand with Invisalign that I Run the Risk of the Alignment Reverting Back?

ortho1
I am interested in expansion with Invisalign. I read about the limitations with Invisalign and how tipping is used. I was told that Invisalign does not handle expansion well and I that the Invisalign tray may not seat well and I can run the risk of my of the alignment of my teeth reverting back to the position before my treatment. Is there any validity to this logic?
