Official Title: Prospective Study to Evaluate Effectiveness of the Hanger Helmet vs the P Pod Helmet in Improving the Head and Face Symmetry

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to examine a group of patients requiring helmet therapy (either patients with plagiocephaly or post-surgical patients) to compare outcomes of infants treated with the Hanger helmet (Hanger, Inc.) to outcomes of infants treated with the P Pod Helmet (Lorica Scientific, LLC). Currently both helmets are prescribed at CCHMC. The investigators' goal is to determine which helmet is more effective in skull remodeling and to standardize the investigators' care for these patient types.
