In the before picture, the cartilages that form the tip of her nose are fully
present. Above the tip cartilages is the divot resulting from loss of some
tissue in that area. Above the divot, her nasal bones are in their normal
position.
If you know where the nasal bones normally reside, you can see their outline
in the before picture above. If you'd like to find out more about the
location of the nasal bones and how they are addressed during surgery, check out
that chapter
of the rhinoplasty surgery tutorial (the surgery tutorials contain explicit photographs taken during surgery).

Questioner:
Can rhinoplasty fix my narrow and long nose?
How extensive of a procedure will it take to correct my nose? What options are there as far as shaping out there for me? What shape would compliment my facial structure?
(Questioner submitted photos)
Dr. Denenberg's answer: You are a somewhat typical candidate for a rhinoplasty
The operation wouldn't be more extensive than an "average" rhinoplasty, although I consider all rhinoplasties fairly "extensive."
I think most people, if they had your nose and were of a mind to change it, would consider lowering the bump on the bridge, narrowing the tip a small amount, elevating the tip up a small amount, and deprojecting the tip -- that is, bringing the entire nose back closer to your face.
