I have DENTS in my forehead

Post by rojo6964 » Mon Nov 06, 2006 10:37 am

Help! Has anyone ever gotten "dents" in their forehead from their mask? I have the Comfort Classic and the gel pad leaves an indent on my forehead and I am concerned that it won't return to normal even after I change my mask!

What to do?

Right off the top of my head, I would say that you've got it way too tight. Try loosening it up.
