You can reduce silver with perm solution but then it may curl the hair on your

Patsy,
I have removed Silver Nitrate on my hands by first treating the stain with
Iodine solution then flushing the area with Sodium Thiosulfate solution (5% ?)
then washing my hands thoroughly with soap and water. It removed the Silver
Nitrate.
I will be out of the office starting 03/23/2010 and will not return until
03/24/2010.
.In my absence please ask for Mary Campbell . If this is urgent you can
contact me on my cell phone number 858-472-4266.

Sorry, but I am not recommended it for your skin.
