I think what you are seeing is reflection, not SSS glowing. Probably still related to your gloss settings for your skin texture. Not sure what SSS shader you are using. I think I did make one at the request of someone a long time ago but I don't use that myself. I use the free one at ShareCG that Bopperthijs made for EZSkin3. Here are my results with nostril crease at 0 and then at 1.

I'm using what you showed the other day in one of these threads. I've just put this in a compound node:

I may, of course, have wrongly reported some values, but I'm not really advanced with the nodes and their purpose. I need to feel more at ease.
