VATS/ Pleurodesis: An operation (VATS) is an option if the part of the lung that tears and leaks air out is identified. It may be a small bleb on the lung surface, which can be removed. Another procedure that may be advised is for an irritant powder (usually a kind of talc powder) to be put on the lung surface. This causes an inflammation which then helps the lung surface to stick to the chest wall better.

Pneumothorax: surgical treatment of recurrent pneumothorax (air leak from the lung) can be by actual opening in the skin to approach the lung under direct vision and close the leak in the lung or remove part of the lung , or can be done by key whole surgery (video assisted surgery), each approach have its merits your doctor will discuss the various options that is appropriate for you

The procedure: causes adhesion to form between the lung and the pleural sack making it impossible to collapse.
