Product details

Description

Nozovent® Nasal Dilator is a simple but proven top-rated product to help relieve the vibrations that cause snoring. Available in two sizes, Medium or Large. It opens the nostrils, allowing more oxygen into the airways. It is a small strip made from medical plastic that inserts into the nasal channels, and expands, allowing breathing to become easier. As a result, the soft palate does not vibrate as easily, you breathe easier and snore less. Easier on your throat too, and allows more oxygen into your lungs.

The Nozovent® Nasal Dilator is designed and made using a ‘springy’, flexible plastic (polyeteramid). It takes a little time to get used to, but with regular use most find that they forget its presence in the nose. In position, Nozovent® is anchored by specially designed nodules, which ensure that the device does not come into contact with the mucous membrane or become the cause of a nosebleed.

Each pack contains 2 pieces.

Regular use

After use, clean Nozovent® thoroughly with soap and water. It can also be sterilised in boiling water. With regular use, the device will give good service for up to three months before needing replacement.

Available in 2 sizes

Nozovent® is available in two sizes, Medium or Large. The most common is Medium, but there is also a Large size, for people with well-developed noses. It is important that you choose the correct size, so that your Nozovent is secure. If necessary, you can individually adapt the wings using a small pair of scissors. Remove as much material as necessary to ensure a good fit and the best possible comfort.

Additional FAQs

Do nasal dilators work and how do they help with snoring? 

Nasal dilators don’t cure snoring, but they can make a real difference if your snoring is caused by blocked or narrow nasal passages. Worn inside the nostrils, they gently widen the nasal valves, reducing resistance and improving airflow. This can ease nasal-based snoring, support clearer breathing through the nose, and reduce mouth breathing. 

They’re less effective if your snoring comes from the throat or tongue collapsing during sleep, in which case another type of solution may be more suitable. You can take our interactive snore quiz to help determine your snoring type. 

What’s the difference between nasal dilators and nasal strips? 

Nasal dilators and nasal strips are sometimes referred to as internal and external nasal dilators. Both aim to improve airflow, but they work in different ways: 

  • Internal nasal dilators (or nasal valve dilators) are small inserts worn inside the nostrils. They gently hold the nasal passages open and are usually reusable, providing consistent support throughout the night. Some are designed to provide extra support for weak or collapsing nasal valves. 
  • External nasal dilators (or nasal strips) are adhesive bands placed across the outside of the nose. They work by gently lifting the sides of the nose to open the airways. 

Many people prefer the comfort and reusability of internal dilators, while others like the convenience of disposable strips. 

Are there different types of nasal dilators? 

Yes. Internal nasal dilators (sometimes called nasal valve dilators) are small, reusable inserts worn inside the nostrils, while external dilators (nasal strips) are disposable adhesive bands placed across the outside of the nose. You may also come across magnetic nasal dilators, magnetic nose clips, or nose magnets, which are a more recent innovation. These devices include small magnets and are designed to hold the nostrils open in a similar way, helping to improve airflow and reduce nasal snoring. 

Are nasal dilators safe to use every night? 

Most nasal dilators are safe for regular nightly use. Internal dilators can be cleaned and reused but should be replaced after the period recommended by the manufacturer for hygiene. External dilators (nasal strips) are single-use and should be discarded after each night. Always read the instructions for use, as these include important details on cleaning, replacement, suitability, possible side effects, and any cautions. 

How do I clean a nasal dilator? 

Reusable nasal dilators should be cleaned regularly to keep them hygienic and in good condition. After each use, rinse the dilator under warm water and gently wash it with mild soap. Allow it to air-dry completely before storing it in a clean case. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions, as some types (including silicone nasal valve dilators) may have specific cleaning or replacement guidance.

Nozovent

The product has worked surprisingly well. It is easy to fit once you have practised a few times and the only time I have noticed it is when I have banged my nose! My partner has been positive in her praise for its efficiency, and all I need to do now is do something about her snoring……

Nozovent

I have used these for years since I found that in bed lieing on one side or the other, it varies, I can’t breathe properly. Holding a nostril open with my fingers helped me get to sleep but then obviously didn’t work. I found nosovents, I think from an advertisement but it was many years ago, and they have worked well for me ever since, every night. They last me a long time. I keep several beside the bed as they sometimes flip out during the night and I wake up because I cannot breathe properly. I wash all the ones I have used in the night each morning. This is the first time I have bought them from you but wherever I get them I cannot imagine coping without them. Jessica

A good fall-back

I have used this item previously and found them useful for keeping my nostrils open during sleep (though my problem is actually due to allergies of some sort which cause the upper part of my nose to close off during the night, despite using appropriate puffers – and having had a Turbinate? (nose operation to open it up) in the past. However a sleep test showed me having very low oxygen uptake during the night, and I was very tired in the mornings. The problem with this device is that it does cause mild pain and annoyance with the constant outward pressure on the nostrils – I never really did get used to it. Also, as it protrudes a distance out from the nostrils, it keeps getting accidentally dislodged as I roll over in my sleep – I was forever reinserting it.

harsh on the inner nose

I’d used the Nozovent before. I had a medium size. The plastic was soft and easy on the nose, but it fell out during the night (but when in was very effective). For my next order i went for the large size hoping it would stay in all night. The problem is the plastic seems to be a lot harder and the little bumps on the Nozovent are quite harsh on the inside of the nose. It seems a lot more uncomfortable to wear now…i like using the nozovent as it does give me the ability to breath more freely through my nose. Its a welcome relief.

Nozovent

I have one of these before so I was re-ordering. I find that it opens up the airways and helps me breath better at night.I wanted to get a small one for my wife but they do not seem to make them in a small size. Pity!
