Can I cryo-freeze this scar off and what would be the outcome? (Photo)

What would be the potential best case and worst case scenario of freezing this scar off? It is the size of a raisin and thick/raised. It is a few layers of skin deep. Will freezing it peel it off and leave a completely flat surface that is COMPLETELY flush with the surrounding skin? Is it possible that it will leave no detectable contour after? How does the liquid nitrogen know to only freeze and destroy the scar tissue? I will probably get a cosmetic tattoo over it after.
