Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
I'm 3 months in to CPAP and generally very pleased. My diaphragm is paralyzed so I sleep on my back, but my mask tends to crimp the delicate tissue below my left eye. I'm 59 so a bit sensitive to this I'll be grateful for suggestions!

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

Maybe Padacheek has a liner or strap cover that will cushion that area.

Re: Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
I have Resmed Airfit N20, covers my whole nose. I've tried adjusting the straps so that it sits lower on my face. Any suggestions most appreciated!

Thank you for the suggestion. They have a micro fleece cover that may help!chunkyfrog wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 8:19 pmMaybe Padacheek has a liner or strap cover that will cushion that area.

Re: Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
Also maybe look at a different mask that doesn't go over the nose so the silicone isn't near the eye tissues.
Look at the ResMed N30 or the mask I use (link in my signature line). There are several masks available that don't go up over the nose so they are away from from the eyes and any straps that might sort of get close there are strap pads/covers to help diffuse the pressure.

Re: Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
The fuzzies make it more comfortable and avoid the dents in my cheeks from the straps. Just a little less tugging on my skin. Thank you for the suggestion!

Re: Mask forcing wrinkles below eyes
Thank you again. Now, if you have any suggestions for the troubling scalp issues I just posted I'll be even more grateful!
