People with injuries or extreme facial surgeries or even birth deformities could use the mask "off the shelf".

That's a brilliant idea, using the machine to inflate the seal keeps changing it, by using a pump independent of the XPAP, the seal would be stabilized. Brovo! Jim

That would really help FF masks!

Another great concept! We will take it into consideration! it is starting to be quite apparent that no one mask can possibly help everyone, which is justifying some of the grievance I received earlier in this thread. Unfortunately, we can only select one concept to develop given our time constraint :/ But the idea of an "inflatable" seal is certainly novel!

The one downside to the pump up seal would be production cost, we all know the industry is driven by bottom line. Two cents more per unit would have them crying on their Gold Braid. Jim

So, here's 21 forum polls (there's probably more) regarding masks. You should find the information useful.
