Craniofacial reconstructive surgery
Surgical intervention to correct jaw abnormalities, cheekbone hypoplasia, and other facial skeletal defects characteristic of the condition. Multi-stage procedures may be planned based on individual anatomy and developmental stage.
Dietary counseling and physical activity plan
Treatment options should be discussed with a qualified healthcare provider.
Multidisciplinary developmental surveillance
Regular comprehensive assessments by genetics, orthopedics, dentistry, and developmental specialists to monitor growth patterns, limb abnormalities, and dental development throughout childhood and adolescence.
Additional treatment options
