Capsulectomy is a surgical procedure that removes the capsule of scar tissue that forms around a breast implant. This is often recommended when the capsule becomes hardened (capsular contracture), causes discomfort, or if there are concerns about implant rupture or leakage. Depending on the case, a total or partial capsulectomy may be performed, and it can be combined with implant replacement or removal. The goal is to restore comfort, improve breast shape, and support overall health and aesthetics.
