Experience and Results
If your child has been diagnosed with deformation plagiocephaly or Brachycephaly, you may be seeking more information to make an informed treatment decision. At Ortho Design, we have been providing and modifying Cranial Remolding Orthoses (CRO) since 2012. Our Smart Soc system enables us to accurately map an infant’s cranial shape with 0.1% precision. The STARband CRO has successfully treated over 600,000 infants with positional Plagiocephaly, Brachycephaly, Scaphocephaly, and other head shape deformities in infants aged 3 to 18 months since 2000.
Our Certified Orthotists understand the importance of discussing treatment options with you and will only recommend proceeding with treatment if the severity of the condition falls within the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta scale of severity and treatment.
Cranial remolding helmets are a safe and effective treatment option for infants with Positional Plagiocephaly or Brachycephaly, and early intervention is key. With the right treatment and support, most babies can achieve a more natural and symmetrical head shape. Contact Ortho Design to arrange a consultation and learn more about your options.
