Well, you can definitely tone it down using the contrast/brightness tool.
The trick is to isolate those particular areas of the photo that need
tweaking so you're not changing the entire image. Which program are you
using? Every editing program should have a tool to manually draw a line
around a certain area. My Photoshop 5.0 LE has a magic wand that can
select an entire area of a certain tone once its sensitivity is set
correctly, and that would let you change the white patches one patch at a
time without affecting the rest of the image at all. Play around with it!
