See, you mean if combined with other factors, such as fat pads predisposition, bad diet and not enough water intake?
Yes.

But also if you undersleep in puberty, facial bones may not develop to the genetic maximum, and thus your maxilla for example could be recessed or flat, thus giving nasiolabel folds or undereye bags/creases.

Yea but mostly just temporarly. Too little sleep can age your skin more and make it weaker so best to get your sleep in.

yes, according to this paper
The duration of sleep and the position of the face while resting on a pillow have a negative impact on the facial skin appearance and may lead to the formation of sleep wrinkles.
also, idk if you sleep on your back or side, but better to sleep on ur back too to prevent sleep lines
Sleep lines, also known as sleeping lines, are wrinkles that form on the skin while sleeping. They are caused by friction between the skin and the surface of the pillow. This friction causes the skin to scrunch up and fold, and if the position of the head stays in the same place, skin folds will form. Over time the skin folds will not spring back so readily, and eventually lines will become etched in the skin.
in short: sleep longer and on your back to prevent wrinkles on your face

I see cause Idk why for last year I had throbbing head in the morning and muscle pain which was worse in the morning and better in the evening, I think I always had predisposition to malar bags if that's correctly cause my family has them, here me at 15 and at 22 the angle matter though
