Breast Lift Crescent Incision Procedure
A mastopexy or breast lift is a surgical procedure performed to reshape the breast and return it to a more youthful position. Drooping of the breast may occur after pregnancy as well as aging. Frequently a breast implant may be used in conjunction with a breast lift in order to achieve better results. Depending on the amount of breast lifting that needs to be accomplished, different techniques may be used that involve different incisions. Generally, the more lifting that is required, the larger the incision (and therefore the scar).
The crescent incision is utilized when there is a minimal amount of breast lifting to be performed. This involves making marks in the skin above the aereola in order to move it up slightly.
The appropriate amount of skin is removed.
The area is sutured closed.
The amount of lifting is usually small, and there may be some elongation of the aereola. Healing time may take several weeks. A special bra is usually worn to support the breast for up to three months. The compression bra is an important part of the recovery process. The bra provides support, comfort and helps to minimize swelling.

- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved etravirine (Intelence) tablets for the treatment of HIV infection in adults who have failed treatment with other antiretrovirals.
Etravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). The drug has been approved to be used in combination with other anti-HIV medications.
According to the report, the approval is based on data from two studies involving 599 patients who received etravirine or placebo for a period of 24 weeks. The results showed that more patients who received etravirine along with background therapy experienced viral load reductions than did those who received a placebo and background therapy (statistical data were not available in this abstract). The most common adverse events reported in the studies were rash and nausea.
