Craniofacial care

Fellowship-trained pediatric plastic surgeons at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital specialize in reconstructive and plastic surgery for infants, children and teens. Plastic surgery may be used to help restore function or appearance to a part of your child’s body affected by a congenital condition or injury. Your child’s care team starts by listening to you and answering your questions – big and small. Whether you are taking your child to their first appointment or looking for a second opinion, we’re here for your family. Your child’s doctor takes the time to explain your child’s diagnosis and discuss their treatment options. Together, we create a surgical care plan that is right for your child and your family.

Pediatric surgeons deliver care for:

• Cleft lip and palate
• Craniosynostosis, when a baby’s skull bones connect too early
• Ear abnormality
• Hemangioma, bright red birthmark
• Jaw or facial abnormality
• Plagiocephaly, flat spot on a baby’s head
• Polydactyly and syndactyly, extra or webbed fingers and toes
• Scars
• Skin lesion, mole and cyst
• Vascular malformation, birthmark or growth caused by blood vessels

Your child’s multispecialty care team connects the dots for all your child’s care, including additional imaging, labs, referrals to other pediatric specialists, therapy and more.
