Hello,

If the development is normal and he is academically good nothing needs to be done. But for aesthetic reasons, we can go ahead with a craniosynostosis surgery. You can approach a good pediatric neurosurgeon regarding this.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regard,
