At age nine months, John “Win” Melvin loved swings, dropping things into buckets, and bathtime! Win kept his parents on their feeet – and they wouldn’t have had it any other way. They were completely unprepared for a diagnosis of craniosynostosis, but thanks to Dr. Caitlin Hoffman, they soon had their happy baby back, better than ever.

July is Craniofacial Awareness Month, and we want to share why this cause is so close to our hearts.

Every year, thousands of babies are born with craniofacial conditions—differences in the skull, face, or jaw that can affect breathing, eating, speaking, and how children see themselves in the world. For many families, receiving this diagnosis feels like stepping into the unknown.

But here's what we've learned over decades of caring for these children: with the right team, the right timing, and the right approach, these conditions are not just treatable—they're transformable.

At Weill Cornell Medicine, we don't just perform surgery. We restore function, rebuild confidence, and reunite families with hope. Our multidisciplinary team includes neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons, orthodontists, speech therapists, and child life specialists who work together to give every child the best possible outcome.

This month, we're sharing the stories, science, and specialists behind this life-changing care. Because every child deserves to smile with confidence.
