About Starband
STARband is custom-made based on a baby's
unique head measurements taken through
Orthomerica's STARscanner.
The custom molded helmet is made of 3/16"
copolymer plastic with a ½" foam interface.
The headband is worn 23 hours a day, channeling
head growth by applying constant, gentle pressure
on protruding head areas while leaving room for
growth in depressed ones.
The interior is modified frequently to account for changes. Head shape problems are not life threatening and are correctable if treated by 18 months of age.
Lack of treatment can lead to developmental delays, visual impairment and misaligned ears, eyes and jaw.
