Do you have the image as a RAW file?
If you do, you can alter the exposure in Photoshop.

If not, no idea I’m afraid

RawTherapee is also very good at highlight recovery

no

i only have it as a jpeg?

Then it'll be a bit difficult, but try recovering some detail using the Multiply layer mode.

Have you got an example of a blown image?
If you put a link up to a high res version, or for that matter post one as big as the forum rules allow (800px on the longest side), people can have a play with it and let you know how they did it.

Saying that, just noticed you have selected that you don't want people to edit your images so hope that is ok.
