This method greatly reduces the impact the poles.

Add a knife cut close to the front of the nose.

(enable cut through z and angle constraint c)

For your instance here is the workflow, Ill circle back later and give the text step-by-step run down. By the way this does not eliminate, but practically It does visually. You can, but you need to get rid of that Apex, and figure out how to re-topo at this location. However, this is a good first start.
