Can hookah smoking at puberty affect nose shape and bone growth in general? i'm not happy with my face bones and think i stunted the growth.. help please

Other issues: Hookah smoking will not change nose shape or bone growth in general. However snorting a substance can cause a deviation or holes in the nasal septum (middle part of nose). More important is what you are smoking. Tobacco has serious risks- increased wrinkling, more likely to get colds, lung infections and long term cancer. Other substances smoked can irritate your nose, throat and lungs.
