Tongue & Lip Tie Treatment in Miami

At birth, children can be diagnosed immediately with a tongue or lip tie. With a consultation from a lactation consultant or examination by a pediatrician, a tie can be correctly identified. We treat corrective tongue and lip ties using lasers. There is no bleeding, and healing improves each time corrective tie surgery is performed.

What is the best age for frenectomy treatment?

At Little Champions, we treat babies as young as one week old. It is never too early to have your baby evaluated by a Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). Babies as young as one day old can be examined, and when indicated, a frenectomy should be performed as soon as possible.
