How to Remove Dark Spot from Silver Piercing?

June 16, 2009
Asked By:SportsGirl5 in Providence, RI USA

I had a nose piercing and unfortunately made the mistake of wearing silver stud. It oxidized and now that I've taken out the ring, there is a dark spot. I believe it is argyria. I tried using hydroquinone to remove the spot, but to no avail. Are there other options, topical or surgical that I can do? Thanks in advance.
