Are You a Candidate for Superficial Radiation Therapy for Keloid Removal?

Keloids are raised, thick scars that can develop after skin trauma or surgery, often causing discomfort, itching, and self-consciousness. In the past, many patients were told that keloid removal was either impossible or had a high risk of recurrence. However, Superficial Radiation Therapy (SRT) with the SRT-100+™ system has transformed keloid treatment by offering a safe and effective solution. At the International Keloid & Scar Treatment Center in Orlando, FL, Dr. Kenrick Spence and his team provide personalized care to help patients achieve healthier, smoother skin.

What Is Superficial Radiation Therapy (SRT)?

Superficial Radiation Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-dose radiation designed to penetrate only the top layers of the skin. The SRT-100+™ system delivers calibrated radiation to target and prevent the regrowth of keloid scar tissue after removal. This method has been shown to significantly reduce the risk of recurrence, which is a common challenge with traditional keloid treatments.

SRT works by targeting fibroblasts, the cells responsible for producing excess scar tissue. By suppressing these cells, SRT helps prevent keloid regrowth while preserving healthy surrounding skin.

Are You a Candidate for Superficial Radiation Therapy?

You may be a good candidate for SRT if you meet the following criteria:

• Recurring Keloids: If previous attempts to remove your keloid scars resulted in regrowth, SRT can help prevent this from happening again.
• Surgical Keloid Removal: Patients planning to undergo keloid excision surgery may benefit from SRT to ensure long-term success.
• Emotional or Physical Distress: If your keloid scars are causing pain, discomfort, or reduced self-confidence, SRT may help restore your comfort and appearance.

SRT is often recommended as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, including surgical removal of the keloid tissue and follow-up therapy.

Benefits of Superficial Radiation Therapy for Keloid Treatment

Patients undergoing SRT for keloid removal can experience several benefits:

• Reduced Risk of Recurrence: Keloids have a high recurrence rate with surgical removal alone. Combining surgery with SRT dramatically reduces this risk, with many patients experiencing long-lasting results.
• Non-Invasive and Painless: SRT is a non-invasive procedure that involves minimal discomfort. The radiation is calibrated to affect only the scar tissue, ensuring a safe and precise treatment process.
• Improved Aesthetic Results: By preventing keloid regrowth, SRT helps patients achieve smoother, flatter skin. This can lead to improved self-esteem and the ability to wear clothing that may have previously exposed unwanted scars.
