Breakouts on face after CPAP

Posted by Sleepytime on May 25, 2007 at 14:50:18:

I've just started wearing my mask for CPAP therapy, but I've had acne all my life and my face has started to breakout with zits particularly over the bridge of my nose.

I read somewhere that one could put some bandage tape over the sensitive area, but I don't want that to further aggravate my skin without knowing the specific brand, etc.

Any suggestions?

TIA
