Capsulotomy vs capsulorrhaphy: is a new pocket often done while removing scar tissue?

Asked By:Amy_bliss in San Francisco, CA

Is implant pocket re-adjustment (capsulorrhaphy) a procedure that would often be considered separate from a capsulotomy or capsulectomy or is the creation of a new pocket often done while removing scar tissue via the capsultomy/capsulectomy?
