While they’re often lumped into the same category, it’s important to understand how these different breathing aids work so you can determine the best fit for you.

How Nose Strips Work

Nasal strips work a little differently. Instead of focusing on the mouth, they target the nose by physically opening the nasal passages.

Placed across the narrowest part of your nose (underneath the bone), these nasal breathing aids use flexible polymer bars to gently widen the nasal valve area. This improves airflow almost instantly, making it easier to breathe. They are especially helpful if you’re dealing with congestion, sinus issues, allergies or a deviated septum.
