First, a raised scar is surgically removed. Then, to prevent recurrence of the scar, radiotherapy is used hours or days following the surgery.
Even though excision with radiotherapy completely removes the scar(s), in some cases, scar(s) may grow back after the treatment.

Cons:
I have scaring in three different areas that I didn't have before and also really bad hyperpigmentation, my face looks worse now then it did before I had it, it's been over a month.
I would not recommend PSR3, the recovery time is longer then they tell you, I work from home but if I had a 8 to 5 job I probably would have lost it...I could not wear makeup for at least three almost four weeks. It's now been over a month and I have three places that are scared and VERY bad hyperpigmentation. I'm only 32 years old I don't think the Dr. should have recommended this for me to begin with. My face looks horrible, I have to wear Dermablend makeup to cover the brown spots. And on top of the price below I've spent almost $500 on prescriptions because five places got infected.
Pros:
I didn't have any Pros with PSR3
