There is a tool in CS3 called Shadow/Highlight ( File > Image > Shadow/Highlight) that allows you to make adjustments, however as with film transparencies, over exposure blows out the highlights and there is very little detail in them to correct!.

There are two possible causes for your flash over exposing !.!.!. first you may be closer to the subject than your camera can focus, so the flash is exposing at a point further past your subjects position !.!.!. second could be that you have accidently increased the flash output by a stop or so !.!.!. some cameras have a -2 to +2 EV compensation option on their flashes!.
