Hello,

We started treatment for our son at 11 months for moderate plagiocephaly in June and are very happy with the results. He has two weeks to go and we are finished with treatment having reached our goal last week.

Good luck!

We put our little girl in a Hanger helmet at 11 months and she has had some improvement but it is definitely slower than others you will read about here (she went from 11mm to 9 the last 4 months). She is 15 months now and the helmet is just now getting tight on her nonflat side so we are going back this week to determine if we are going to shave her current helmet or start discussions on getting a new one...Good luck! I was so worked up about it and she handled it so well! It does become somewhat of a security thing and they like to wear it. And she HATED hats and has a bad temper so I was really worried!

Hi everyone! I wanted to get some feedback regarding my daughter. She is 10 months old and has positional plagiocephaly on the right side of her face (head) and a little flatness to the back of her head. We live on a small military base in Japan and her Doctor here has said that she does have plagiocephaly but that she will grow out of it and has not recommended her for further treatment. I disagree with her doctor and decided to take her to Cranial Technologies in Dallas to have them evaluate her. Has anyone used this clinic, if so what was your experience? Also, has anyone put a helmet on their child at 10-11 months? Thank you for your help.
