STARband Cranial Orthoses
The STAR® Family of Cranial Remolding Orthoses has effectively treated various head shape deformities in infants aged 3-18 months, including positional Plagiocephaly, Brachycephaly, and Scaphocephaly since 2000. This revolutionary treatment has gained widespread recognition, with over 600,000 infants benefiting from the STARband worldwide. Notably, the STARband is the first Cranial Remolding Orthoses approved by the FDA for use by O&P practitioners in the United States and internationally.
STARband - One and Done!
STARband stands out from other Cranial Remolding Orthoses because of its One Headband Guarantee. This guarantee ensures that over 98% of patients with deformational plagiocephaly or brachycephaly can be effectively treated with just one headband. The STARband’s design allows for complete head shape correction and offers flexibility for adjustments throughout the treatment. This feature empowers clinical partners to make informed treatment decisions at every visit, enabling them to achieve optimal outcomes for each patient.
Innovative Designs
The innovative designs of the STARband and STARlight cranial orthoses ensure complete contact with the prominent regions of the skull while creating open spaces over the flattened areas. This strategic approach allows for symmetrical skull growth by providing a pathway for natural reshaping. Bi-valved designs have proven to be highly effective in treating Scaphocephaly and other types of head-shape deformities. Other design options are also available including 3D printed helmets (coming soon).
