No. While most parents have appearance-related concerns, that’s not the main reason to consider treatment. Many doctors now recognize skull abnormalities associated with moderate or severe plagiocephaly can have important functional implications for your baby, both now and later in life.
Plagiocephaly is not known to have any lasting harmful effects on your baby’s neurological development. However, if left untreated it is possible the head will remain misshapen into adulthood.
Simple at-home practices including supervised tummy time and repositioning techniques are known to prevent and improve abnormal head shapes up until about four months of age. Additionally, limiting the use of convenience devices, such as car seats, infant carriers and swings, is also recommended.
No two cases of plagiocephaly are alike and it's always best to consult a trained professional.
