I'm still not sure if I know what you mean, but it is normal for the mask to inflate and therefore push against where it contacts your face. That is really how the mask is designed... to inflate and create the seal by the pressure itself, as opposed to the gel type masks that are designed to be fully sealed before you start any air pressure at all.
