My mask is as loose as I can make it without leaks (or worse the mask farts that wake me up).
However over the last year that I have been wearing the mask it has steadily reshaped my head, I am well on the way to have a head like the "Ferengi".
I realise that there probably is very little I can do about it, just accept it, but I do wonder if I am alone in this?

It's not something we hear about Kevin, but some people do say their facial features can alter. This is why I'm a big believer in alternating between different styles of masks so the same pressure isn't being applied to the same areas of he face. This isn't always possible of course, as sometimes people find it hard to get one mask that works well for them....let alone two.
If you end up looking like Damon Quark we will know who you are if we meet you coming down the street.
I joke.
I use nasal pillows that tend not to be hard on the face, but I have seen tram lines on my face in the morning.
When I tried a full-faced mask, it was like having two textures on my face and for the first five minutes looked like something that was designed for a mate for Frankenstein! With the sore on the bridge of my nose I had the face that only a mother could love!
