I have been using a cpap for 9 years now. I used to have a face mask that covered my nose. I switched to a new machine and a new pillow mask. I wear the xs, but it still leaves sores on my nose bc it feels like it's still too big.

Are you serious? Same one in three different threads and I have to confess, it makes no sense to me.

My son has struggled with a full face mask and nasal pillows. We just discovered that Phillips Respronics has a mask that fits around your nose but does not have the pillows that go inside your nose. My son is having much better results with this mask.

Yes I use one by them called Dream Wear. It sits under the nose, does not go inside nose.
