Marks on my face from F30i

[YipManStyle]

Skin is not as elastic as it was in the past.  Been a CPAP user for 4 years.

I tried those pads that wrap around the mask to reduce the marks on my face in the morning.  But it does not create a tight enough seal.  Meaning my numbers are better without the pads.

I tried hot water on a towel, wash my face with warm water, lotion, massages, etc.  This makes it difficult for me to go out for morning appointments.  No shame, but our presentation do matter.  The marks generally become not visible in the afternoon.

Any other tips and tricks you find helpful?

TIA

Resmed 11.  F30i.

Is it possible you're wearing the mask too tight.  I realize you need to adjust tight enough for leaks, but not excessively tight.
