Nose Discoloration -- From Full Face Mask?

[mfancett18]

Hello all
I have been using a full face mask for about 4 years now and gradually have noticed that my nose always looks sunburned or even a little purple on cold days. A discoloration from the rest of my face pigment for sure.
I am wondering if anyone else has experience this or heard of it. I have met with dermatologists who can't find a reason for it, but I brought up the CPAP and they weren't sure if that could be a contributing factor.
Just curious if anyone here may have any thoughts.

Go to a dermatologist, bring along you mask to show the doc how you use it.

Or you can try an aesthetician.
