Nasal CPAP Masks
The Nasal Style CPAP & BiPAP Mask are the most common form of nasal CPAP or BiPAP masks. While not as small as nasal pillows, the nasal masks are still fairly small compared to full face CPAP masks. There are two different styles of Nasal CPAP Masks - Nasal Cushion CPAP Mask and Under The Nose Nasal CPAP Mask. The Nasal Cushion CPAP Mask covers the nose area and rests over the nose and against the cheeks and upper lip. The other nasal style cushion which is called Under The Nose Nasal CPAP Mask comfortably rests under the nose and against the cheeks and upper. Both Nasal CPAP Mask styles are held in place with a headgear that attaches to the mask at the forehead and sides of the face. The CPAP machine sends pressurized air into the mask, which surrounds your nose before you inhale it with a Nasal cushion mask and with under the nose nasal mask the air pushes throw the two holes that align with the nostrils.
