Quick Q: How do you keep nasal dilators in place?

Since my last turbinoplasty/septoplasty, that was pretty much botched (ik ik bad decision), my nasal valve collapse has been ridiculous (my joints are very hypermobile, so I think this adds to it). I used the strips for some time, but they never provided the structure that the dilators do. The only problem is that the dilators always fall out at night despite trying many different shapes and sizes.

I've also tried taping it to my nose (I think I pull it off in my sleep), and I also created a strap around my head, but the problem was that the plastic is too flexible, so it pulled apart my nostrils haha.

Does anyone have any tips? Also, has anyone tested nasal trumpets/stents?
