Abstract

This invention is an improved flexible respiratory mask facial seal (18), as well as a respiratory mask (10) incorporating such seal. The facial seal comprises an annular member (16) including a peripheral sidewall bounded by an inner end and an outer end generally opposite the inner end. The annular member is formed of a gel substance possessing resilience characteristics corresponding to those of human fat tissue.
