Can you re-use this mask? If so, how often?

Yes it can be reused several times but it does have to be discarded after several uses. If you are wearing in a confirmed infectious disease environment it should be discarded after being worn once.

Depends on your application, really. If using for protection from a deadly, airborne, (aerosol, like Ebola) contagion NO. NOT RECOMMENDED. If you have the flu & are wearing it to protect others, sure...

A long time, I would think, but I must admit I have quit using mine. It actually seemed to increase the mask leakage. I think the edges are too thick (the thickness seems rather uniform & I think it would be better if the was more tapered towards the edges). I've gone back to using band aids. I just put lotion on the bridge of my nose before applying the band aid, which allows for easier removal the next morning.

I think that is about how many times per week you will use the mask, if you use it everyday it can last like 2 months, but if you use it like 2 or 3 times per week it will last longer for sure.

Every 3 months. I use it twice per day as well as twice per week for the mask.

I use mine once or twice a week only and it helps tremendously! :) I'm sure you could use it more or even less depending upon what you'd like. But twice a week has worked well for me!

I am not a professional but I would change mine everyday because of the germs on the outside of the mask, they could transfer to other places and things. I hope this might help you.

I would do a trial run with it first. My girlfriend didn't and then we we were on vacation, it leaked and we had to find another mask for her to use.

That is up to you. If you are OCD, then yes. I think that once a week is good enough. Although, I do use it as much as I should. For some reason, after you use it, the mask and hose smell like chlorine (supposedly the smell of O3). You will get used to it. I use baby wipes after I use the machine to combat the smell.

yes ~! It is possible. But after you bought it, you should tell it to the shop. Cause this mask sheet, as you see a lot of sellers are on this product. :)

Once you started to use it there is no way to stop,so you need to reapply again. Remember,that nothing lasts forever. Unfortunately.

It is reusable. I've probably used mine a hundred or more times. If you use it every day, you'll probably need one every three months. I only use mine a couple times a week and I can see mine lasting at least a year. It's pretty well-made.

Personally, I use very little ( once a day) at night. There are times I use it two times a day , if I'm going out to a dinner engagement or something like that.Use a dime size of a tad more & it should last a few months.I hope I was able to be of help.Cheers!

The answers you've gotten are good and yes, I agree that they are cheap enough to replace daily or even once every other day but I avoid reusing one too long as I'm worried about bacterial and mold buildup from the humidity.

I believe they recommend once a year. These can cause sensitivity and shouldn't be over used.

N95 masks are technically single use masks. You should dispose of it after you take it off your face.

That happened to my husband when he used the mask several times and then went a few weeks before using it again. Changing the batteries worked.
