At What Age Can A Brachycephalic Head Shape Be Treated?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I am wondering if you could kindly advise at what age is it possible to have treatment for a brachycephalic head shape? Is it possible to treat younger patients or is it advisable to wait until adulthood?

A: Anytime after puberty would be fine for aesthetic skull reshaping procedures as the skull is fairly mature by the teenage years.
