Flat head

Hi mummies, my baby boy has a flat head, can I ask if it is really necessary to go for the helmet treatment? Heard it can cost about $5000. Am thinking if it’s purely aesthetics reasons only, is it still necessary? Especially since their hair will grow and will likely cover the flatness? Will appreciate any advice! Thank you!

Depends on how bad the flat head is. It usually does not interfere with brain development. I remember some mums were talking about Orthopaedia having a free first consult session several years back when my firstborn was an infant but not sure if it is still the case now. Can try to call and check. In the meantime, there is a Plagiocephaly group on FB where u may want to get more detailed peer advice.
