How Long Will My Baby Wear The STAR Cranial Remolding Orthosis?  
 
 


Most babies wear a STAR cranial orthosis for 12-16 weeks if they are between the ages of four to seven months old. Older infants may require a longer treatment program because head growth slows after 12 months. Research indicates that the greatest symmetry can be attained before the baby is 12 months old, although correction is possible in babies up to 18 months. Your baby will wear the orthosis 23 hours per day with one hour off for bathing and cleaning.
