Does wearing dentures both top and bottom affect outcomes of Facelifts?

Great question. Dentures do not affect the outcomes of a facelift as the skin from the jowls and neck are primarily improved and dentures have no effect on those areas. As long as you have excess skin and laxity in the neck, you should benefit well from a facelift. 

Wearing dentures does not affect the the outcome of a facelift operation in my experience.  Do discuss it with your own surgeon though.

In patients with dentures, a significant bone loss can be expected which contributes to aging changes of the face.  An accurate assessment of facial aging will dictate the specific surgical maneuvers needed to create a youthful and yet natural look. In addition to correcting deep tissues and skin excess, the bone loss component is addressed with Structural Fat Graft and/or facial implants. Seek out an experienced and skilled facelift expert for an in person evaluation. 

I typically recommend leaving your dentures in during a facelift procedure. This provides support to your lower face and creates a more natural position when lifting the soft tissues around your mouth area. Removing the dentures could result in an unnatural pull or look to your facelift. Plus, I suspect you wear your dentures most of the time and you want the lift to be in balance with your mouth area. Good luck with your procedure.

If you wear dentures, your dentures should definitely be replaced in the operating room after a general endotracheal intubation, and prior to commencement of your facelift.  It is very common for patients to lose height and thickness in the bones of their maxilla and mandible as they age, and replacement of your dentures will give your surgeon a better understanding of the three dimensional spatial relationships of your facial skeleton at the time of your surgery.  

Dentures can help support the facial skin.  However the way the facelift surgery is done is not affected.

The use of dentures should not detract from your facelift results.  You should have them in place to allow the surgeon to have an adequate midface/mandibular height while planning the lift.  

Dentures have no effect on the outcome of a facelift but you should discuss this with your surgeon nonetheless. Best wishes!

This is an excellent question and it is asked by some of my patients during consultation.  Dentures do not effect the outcome of your facelift surgery.  Facelift is designed to improve the lower face and neck tissue laxity. 
You are a good candidate for a lower face and neck lift, if there are enough face and neck laxity. This procedure will improve you jowls and create a stronger jawlines for you.  
I have performed well over 3,000 face and neck lifts for over past 14 years. About 500 of them were performed under general anesthesia and nearly 2500 of those cases were performed under local anesthesia with twilight sedation. Without a doubt local anesthesia and twilight sedation is safe and well tolerated by patients. Compare to the traditional facelift procedures that are performed under general anesthesia, the post operative complications associated with local anesthesia cases are lower and risk of bleeding is minimized.   
I recommend that you find a surgeon who can perform your surgery using local anesthesia and twilight sedation.

As we age, gravity pulls the facial soft tissues down and volume loss, hard tissue eg. bone and teeth and soft tissue occurs. The teeth and gums are very important in supporting the lower face and upper neck. If you have loss of the upper and lower teeth, it is critical that you have dentures or dental implants in place prior to your facelift to get the best results. In lesser cases of tooth loss, the Juvabite system can also improve facial rejuvenation.
