Reshaping Ideale saddle?



I’d love some input about how best to reshape/tighten up the leather on my old Ideale 80 leather saddle.
The leather is still soft and pliable ( maybe too much so!), but it has taken on a pronounced “banana” shape over the years. The sides of the saddle are not flared much. Should I try to adjust the tightening but at the nose, or does it look to be time for a new leather top? I love Ideale saddles, and this one has that nice base as well. I don’t want to ruin this one, but it is getting pretty “broken in”!
