Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hanger and Star are similar - it really is all about the ortho. How much experience they have working with the band. Would it be the same ortho whether you use star or hanger? Do you know how long they have been practicing? How many babies they treat a month? A year? Jen and Luli - 26 months Left tort - Right Plagio - Hanger Band Grad - CA http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/j/jens5th/ hanger or starband same or not Hi everybody, Well we are having my daughter's (allysann) head scanned on Thursday, and she will get her Hanger band in a week to two weeks after that. I was wondering, Is there a big difference between the hanger band and Star band? This is the one my neurosurgeon recommended and the one we will go with, so I hope I don't regret my decision. she has plagio & brachy, will the brachy take longer to correct? Will her head round out with the Hanger band or should i go with the starband. Any advice or any other experiences would be appreciated,thanks More new features than ever. Check out the new AOL Mail!
