When a person age, collagen and elastic fibers break down allowing the skin to stretch and sag making the nose appear longer and droopier. Shorter and perky nose are associated with youth. This is one of the reasons why rhinoplasty is sometimes recommended along with anti-aging procedures like facelift in order to restore the nose to a more youthful appearances.
Another reason why the nose appears larger or longer as a person ages is because the surrounding areas of the face like the cheeks, lips and hollows of the eyes lose some of their volume. By comparison the nose can then appear longer. Some people turn to use injectable dermal fillers and lip augmentations to correct this.

I can see surgery perhaps lifting the nose to keep it from sagging, but what kind of surgery can be done to ears that are growing? I don't think there is anything that can be done for that, unless one wants to reconstruct the ear. In the case of the ear, it might be better as it grows with age since we naturally lose some hearing and the largeness of the ear can help amplify sounds.
Having surgery on the nose to help it from sagging would be like having a face lift. It doesn't last forever and you'd have to repeated have the procedure done. Hardly seems worth it.
