Results vary but are generally visible within 4-6 weeks of consistent use.

Some infants may take a few days to get comfortable lying on the Perfect Noggin and some will take up to 2 weeks. Most parents tell us that after a brief adjustment period, their infants loved sleeping on the Perfect Noggin and slept better than ever!

Your baby should stop using the Perfect Noggin when torticollis (if present) is fully resolved, they are older than 4 months, and you are satisfied with their head shape. Alternatively, you can continue using it until they start rolling from back to belly.

Your baby should ideally spend all sleep time on the Perfect Noggin, but at minimum it should be used for overnight sleep. The more you can use it, the better the results.

Left photo: before Perfect Noggin at 12 weeks old. Right photo: after 10 weeks of using Perfect Noggin at 22 weeks old. There’s still some head flatness and his ears are not completely aligned but I’m sure it’ll round out more when he gets older. The Perfect Noggin saved us thousands of dollars by no longer needing a helmet!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! What an amazing result! 😍 We're delighted to hear that the Perfect Noggin has made such a positive difference for your little one and that you have avoided helmet therapy!

I simply can’t say thank you enough for those who created the Perfect Noggin.

I watched the posts in the private facebook group for many weeks before buying and even after purchase it took us more than a month to get our baby to actually sleep in it. We had remarkable, extremely fast results and I am so relieved. We went to have his head scanned again and they say he no longer needs a helmet.

Pic #1: before PN
Pic #2: July 23rd, 5 days of use (yes only 5 😲)
Pic #3: July 29, 2 weeks of use.
Pic #4: August 3rd, 2.5 weeks of use

Separate pic was taken 20th of August.

For additional context, we noticed flattening around week 8 across the back of his head, not on side preference just completely flat back because he sleeps 12 hours straight every night and looks straight up at the ceiling the entire time. He was diagnosed with torticollis at 12 weeks and we did PT until 18 weeks and I was fixed but the PT did nothing for flat head. He started the Perfect Noggin at 18 weeks old.

Aside from 12 hours of sleeping flat on his back, he is almost never in a car seat, swing, or on his back… he spends the other 12 hours doing tons of tummy time, being held, and playing not on his head. I suspect that is why it worked so quickly for us. The only time he was ever on the flat head was sleeping, and he immediately starting spending those 12 hours in the Perfect Noggin.

Sharing to hopefully help other parents. I am forever grateful to the team for this invention.

Hi Chrissy! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience with The Perfect Noggin. We're thrilled to hear about the positive results and that your little one no longer needs a helmet. Your detailed story will surely inspire other parents, and we're grateful to be part of your journey. Wishing your family all the best!

After using Perfect Noggin for a little over a month and doing Physiotherapy, we are SO pleased with the progress!! Our boy is 16 weeks old and has torticollis. We were recommended a helmet in the beginning and were told it was moderate plagiocephaly. I still notice a slight flat side and very slight forehead asymmetry but I am hoping with more time in the Perfect Noggin and continued PT we can avoid a helmet completely! Just so grateful for the PN!!!

Hi Christina, thank you so much for sharing your positive experience with the Perfect Noggin! We're thrilled to hear about the progress your little one is making. Wishing you continued success. Thanks for trusting us!

Our baby is 4.5 months old and a helmet is no longer recommended! Almost two months in the perfect noggin! I have shared the Perfect Noggin with our orthotist who had not yet heard of it! He was equally impressed with the results! We are also doing Physiotherapy for her torticollis and it has improved significantly. Forever thankful for Perfect Noggin and all of the staff! Y’all are doing God’s work.

Hi Rebecca! We're so happy to hear about your positive experience and how you no longer need to helmet! Thank you for sharing your journey and for recommending Perfect Noggin. Wishing you all the best!

One month of Perfect Noggin use for bedtime, twice weekly physio therapy for torticollis, and once weekly chiropractic. So please with the results so far and will continue until he is rolling! He is 3 months old. He was recommended for a helmet last month and I’m hoping it will no longer be recommended at his 4 month appointment!

Your baby's head shape is looking great! 😍 I would say you are already out of the woods for a helmet, but keep going until he starts rolling! Thank you for your review and for sharing your results so far!
