A member asked:
I wore glasses tight on tip of nose just a few times, causing tip & nostrils to be pinched for several seconds. worried that made nose longer, thinner?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: That can be done for several minutes or even several hours, and nothing will happen. The nose is not that malleable. However, if one does that for her permanent eye-glasses position, then the nose can change a bit.
