Is IPR orthodontics GOOD?

Has anyone ever had IPR (interproximal reduction) and Arch expansion treatment done on their teeth?

I have an open bite and some teeth overcrowding at the bottom, and I've been recommended 4 teeth extractions and fixed braces multiple times, however a new ortho I've seen has suggested I could have IPR and arch expansion done with Invisalign instead if I didn't want extractions (which I don't).

Has anyone had this non-extraction treatment, with a similar case to mine?

If so, how did it go!? Do you recommend IPR + Arch expansion or not? Is it a better alternative to teeth extractions etc? Helppp
