The only way I can even possibly seeing this remotely possible is if the saved file you have is saved in the photo editor's default format, for example .psd. In that case you truly haven't saved an image, it's a working file, and yes that can be reverted. It's just not possible to revert anything in a flattened jpg or similar file. The data is simply not there.
its that nifty undo feature in editing software that allows this basically if there is EXIF info stored in the pic then it can be un-cropped/blurred/whatever back to its original state there is a thread on here somewhere where they do this I cant find it atm though I think it was called hidden then revealed
