Feature detection in profile face images

I am using opencv 2.4.2 and c++. I am trying to detect the eyes,nose and mouth of a profile face using haarcascade xml files.The eyes are most of the time detected correctly using haarcascade_mcs_righteye and haarcascade_mcs_lefteye. However,the nose and mouth xml are mostly failures with profile faces[as shown below]. I understand that those were made for frontal face,but is there any other "not-so-complicated" open source method which I can use to detect the tip of the nose and corner of mouth in profile images?Basically,I will need their coordinates,but first I will need to detect them. Anybody please?

Recently, Zhu and Ramanan CVPR 2012 had intoduced Face detection, pose estimation and landmark localization, this is by far the best I've seen, OpenCV Is Great By All means, but it's not state of the art for all applications out there nowadays.

I hope this helps
