In late July, Angelina Jolie’s son Pax was involved in a horrific e-bike accident in Los Angeles.
And now DailyMail.com has learned that Jolie has enlisted the best doctors to care for her son.
One of those doctors was a plastic surgeon who carefully examined the large gash on his forehead.
“Angie wanted to make sure Pax didn’t have a horrible scar on his face, so she asked a top plastic surgeon in Los Angeles to take a look at him and fix it,” a source said.
“She is a very active mother and does everything she can for her children. She made the decision herself and was there during the consultation.”
This comes after Pax was spotted on the red carpet with Angelina for the premiere of Without Blood at TIFF Lightbox during the Toronto International Film Festival in Toronto on September 8. He served as an assistant director on her new film Without Blood, starring Salma Hayek.

The movie star’s 20-year-old adopted child wore sunglasses, but the red scar above his left eye was still visible.
Pax seemed in good spirits as he stood next to his movie star mother, looking stunning in a black dress and opera gloves.
He also worked on her first Kung Fu Panda, Maleficent and First The Killed My Father. And he also worked as AD on her new film Maria.
Jolie reportedly ran to Pax when he was hospitalized following his crash around 5 p.m. on July 29 while on Los Feliz Boulevard in Los Angeles.
A source told Page Six that he was “stable” after the crash and that Angelina is “with Pax in the hospital as he recovers.”
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that Pax’s electric bicycle collided with a stopped vehicle at a busy intersection when the light turned red.
According to reports, the driver jumped out of the car to check on Pax before emergency services were called.
Pax, who was not wearing a helmet at the time of the incident, reportedly suffered head injuries and hip pain and was subsequently rushed to hospital for treatment.
According to Page Six, while emergency responders were concerned that Pax had suffered a minor brain hemorrhage, he appeared to be “doing better” shortly afterward.
The cut is above his nose and above his left eye, but appears to be healing well, several weeks after the crash in LA

“She is a very hands-on mother and does everything she can for her children. She called herself and was there during the consultation,” it added

Along with Pax, Angelina has five other children with her 60-year-old former actor and Fight Club actor: Maddox, 22, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Angelina and Brad began dating in 2004 and married 10 years later. They split in 2016 and have since been embroiled in a bitter battle over child custody and property deals related to their French vineyard.
Brad was initially given a 50-50 custody arrangement, which was sealed in 2021 for privacy reasons, but overturned later that same year.
The exes were officially declared single in 2019.
Last week, Hayek said she was impressed by Jolie’s “serious” and “professional” sons Maddox and Pax on the set of Without Blood.

Angelina wrote and directed the film, and her sons Maddox (23) and Pax were given jobs in the assistant director department, where they acted as a liaison between the director and the other departments. The film’s star, Salma, also enjoyed working with the boys on set because they were so dedicated to their work.
She told PEOPLE: ‘They work hard. [Angelina was] very professional with them… She’s demanding. They got the respect of the crew, and they were good with the crew, and they were very much in their place.
“They didn’t treat me like they treated me out there. … They work hard. They’re very serious about what they do.”
Salma added: ‘It’s funny, I teased them at first, but then I had to say, ‘No. I have to separate them and just treat them like professionals because that’s disrespectful.’

Angelina’s sons also worked in the AD department on the set of her film Maria, directed by Pablo Larraín. She admitted that the work is good for them.
She told The Hollywood Reporter: “They’ve done that a couple of times, and I think it’s good for them. Pax usually does stills and he’s brought in, and Pablo was great and acknowledged that he was good at it.”
The actress was also grateful for her sons’ support, as playing opera star Maria Callas was so emotionally draining.
She added: ‘It really meant a lot that my boys were with me at Maria. When I was really struggling, they would come over and just give me a hug or a cup of tea.
“That was probably one of the most intense things, that – usually when I express that much pain, I don’t do it in front of my children. You really try to hide from your children how much pain and sadness you’re carrying around.
“And that they were there when you expressed it on such a level, I think it was the first time they heard me cry like that. That’s usually before the shower.”
