Superficial radiation therapy (SRT) is a painless, non-invasive, non-surgical treatment for basal and squamous cell skin cancers, with success rates of 95%+. SRT uses low levels of radiation to treat and prevent the spread of non-melanoma cancers on the surface of your skin. It is ideal for patients who are at high risk for surgery (or simply do not prefer it) and those with lesions in sensitive cosmetic areas such as the nose, lips, eyelids, and ears.
Over an average two-month course of treatment, you can expect to sit through 15 sessions with no pain, no recovery time, and no scarring. We understand that dealing with a skin cancer diagnosis can be difficult, which is why we offer SRT as an effective alternative to surgery, from a great team of specialists who love what they do.

Lesions in sensitive areas
The most involved aspect of SRT is the number of visits. You can expect to attend a total of 14 -15 treatment sessions, two per week, depending on your treatment plan. There is no pain, needles, anesthetics, or recovery downtime.

Your initial visit is spent with a physician and specialist to configure your treatment plan. From there, visits consist of quick, routine treatments that take 90 seconds to deliver. Our clinicians will monitor the cancer site to ensure your comfort and treatment progress.
Minimal wound care is needed. You may notice redness and “protective scabbing” but can expect to resume normal activity after each treatment. Upon completing your treatment plan, you will have a 6-week follow-up appointment with a physician to confirm you’re healing well.
“My husband Randy is going through radiation treatments, and they have been the best people ever. Misty was so kind and has done a fantastic job of making sure he understood what was going to happen during his treatments. She is always in a great mood, and it really helps when the patients are stressed out, not knowing what to expect during treatments. I would recommend her to everyone. A big Thank You Misty for all you have done.”
“SCCDC has given us a gift to have April as our SRT Specialist. It's a pleasure to come in for treatments with an angel.”
“SRT was a great decision. I wish I had done it sooner. Tiffany was a sweetheart and always made me feel like I was being taken care of.”
“This was my second time doing the SRT treatments but this time it was in a different location. It went great just like the first time. Everyone is so nice and seems to enjoy what they do. I would recommend SRT to anyone that can do it instead of surgery.”
