Noses do change shape slightly as we reach middle-age and older. If you look at pictures of people over the years, the older we get, the more likely it is that the nose will droop a bit, and if someone drinks too many alcoholic beverages, the nose may look more bulbous, as the capillaries burst and the nose turns reddish. I don’t know if the shape changes for everyone, but I have seen this happen to many people. A nose may also appear slightly swollen, if there is a sinus infection of some type.
