Dent & flat head on LO

My baby girl is 1.5 months old. She have a dent on the back of her head and her head flat on one side as she like to tilt her head to one side when sleeping. Do I need to consult a PD now?

My LO also prefer sleeping on his right. I find it dent too. So I checked w the nurse at polyclinic and all said it’s fine. Have to give him more tummy time and try to make him sleep on the other side. True enough, the shape went back to original position at 6 months. If worry, can go find PD to take a look

My newborn is 1 mth old and I just got myself a yaolan as his head shape became sharp on the top and flat at the back. Do you know if this method is feasible?Polyclinic doc says just give more tummy time and tilt his head left n right while he sleeps. I have been trying to google if flat head is reversible and cannot find any information on this.
