Re: FitLife total face mask
I'm still not getting that rested feeling I get with the amara on fit life. and it keeps leaking at the top and kind of hurts to have it so tight against my face

Re: FitLife total face mask
maybe the air is too unfocused and doesn't splint your airway. Is there a difference between the respironics comfort gel and other masks? I don't like the amara, it tore and then I tried to crazy glue it after only like 2 months

I wear the fit life snug, but not tight. I also had leaks at the forehead. I solved this problem by purchasing a stretchy sweatband and wearing it around my head and over the top of the mask where the leaks were occurring. Voila! Nor more leaks!sickwithapnea17 wrote:I'm still not getting that rested feeling I get with the amara on fit life. and it keeps leaking at the top and kind of hurts to have it so tight against my face

Re: FitLife total face mask
is the fit life more effective than say a mask like amara? I quit because it was just too heavy and it would leak out the top and put pressure on my eyes. the eye pressure alone is a reason not to use it
I'm thinking of buying new gel cushions for my amara
