Nuance Nasal Pillow Description
The First-Ever Gel Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask
Experience a breakthrough in sleep apnea therapy with the Nuance Nasal Pillow Mask. As the very first CPAP mask to incorporate gel nasal pillow technology, the Nuance is designed to solve the age-old problem of choosing between comfort and performance. The innovative gel cushions conform naturally to the unique shape of your nostrils, delivering the exceptional comfort you want with the highly effective, reliable seal you need.
Lightweight, Irritation-Free Fabric Frame
The standard Nuance mask comes equipped with a soft, lightweight fabric frame. This cloth design rests gently against your face, significantly reducing the likelihood of waking up with red strap marks or skin irritation. It is incredibly easy to fit and adjust, ensuring your therapy feels as natural and unobtrusive as possible.
Nuance vs. Nuance Pro: Which Do You Need?
When ordering or replacing your mask, it is important to note the difference between the standard Nuance and the Nuance Pro. While both masks utilize the exact same universal gel cushions, their frames and headgear differ slightly to accommodate personal preferences:
- The Nuance: Features the lightweight, soft cloth frame and fabric-style headgear.
- The Nuance Pro: Features a flexible silicone frame with built-in gel pads that rest against the cheeks, along with a slightly different headgear configuration.

Nuance Nasal Pillow Features
- Contouring Gel Pillows: The soft gel inside the cushions easily contours to your unique nasal structure. This provides a comfortable, leak-free seal without ever having to over-tighten the mask.
- Universal Frame Design: The frame connects seamlessly to all three pillow sizes (Small, Medium, and Large), making it easy to swap cushions and find your perfect fit.
- One-Size-Fits-All Headgear: With quick adjustments available on both sides of the face and at the crown of the head, the headgear can be effortlessly tailored to fit almost any head size comfortably.
- Soft Cloth Frame: The standard Nuance features a comfortable fabric frame that rests gently on the skin, preventing irritation and facial marks.
- Quiet Micro Exhalation Ports: Designed to be whisper-quiet even at higher CPAP pressures. The ports direct exhaled air down the tube, reducing noise and keeping drafts away from your bed partner.
- Interchangeable Cushion Compatibility: Because both the Nuance (fabric frame) and Nuance Pro (silicone/gel frame) use the exact same gel cushions, this is a highly versatile mask system that allows you to prioritize your personal comfort.
Nuance Nasal Pillows Fitting Guide
- Position the Mask: Loosen the headgear straps to a larger setting and pull the mask over your head.
- Insert the Pillows: Gently insert the gel pillow tips into your nostrils so the base rests comfortably directly under your nose.
- Adjust the Crown: Adjust the top crown tab so the headgear rests just above your ears, similar to how a pair of glasses fits.
- Secure the Side Straps: Peel back the side tabs and adjust the straps evenly until the headgear sits flat across the back of your head, then press to reattach.
- Connect and Test: Connect your CPAP tubing, turn on the airflow, and lie down in your normal sleeping position to make any final adjustments.
