Does smoking affect your nose shape?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not that i know of: it can cause skin discoloration, but I have never heard of anybody with that complaint from smoking. Drinking can cause capillary engorgement in some people, particularly those with acne rosacea, which can result in a large and bulbous nose (the "WC Fields" nose) which can be quite deforming. But I have never heard of or seen anything similar with tobacco smoking.
