Common Questions & Answers about Craniofacial Surgery

"My 14-year old daughter needs scar revision for a scar that runs from temple to temple just behind the hair line. The scar is a remnant of surgery at 4 months of age to correct craniosyntosis(fusing of the plates of the skull on the right temporal side). She had corrective surgery at age 11 to try to revise the scar and fill in a concave area on the right temple with porex. The scar is instead wider and the porex implant may need to be trimmed back to give a more symmetrical appearance. I am looking for a surgeon or surgical group that has extensive experience with this type of problem. Thank you for any information or referral you can provide. This is covered by our insurance which has a nationwide network so we are willing to travel wherever it takes to get the proper attention to this problem. "
