How to Remove Blemishes with Photoshop CS5

Learn how to use Photoshop to remove blemishes from your photographs.

So you have taken the best photograph EVER, but there is a tiny bird in the background, dust on the lens or a spot on your face that just wouldn’t go away that day. With Photoshop you can remove these small blemishes with a few simple steps…

This, and other extremely clever Photoshop editing techniques are covered on our Photoshop Training and Advanced Photoshop Training courses in Brighton, Sussex.

Step 1- Find and locate the spots you want to remove from your photograph. Must be a fairly small blemish, as this tool doesn’t work on larger spots.

Step 2- Click on the Spot Healing Brush tool on your Tools bar and select Patch Tool.

Step 3- Circle the small area that you want to remove and then move the circled area to a similar part of the photograph.

The area you move the circled area to must be similar in colour and texture so that you don’t create an even more obvious blemish. This is normally right next to the blemish, for example if you had a spot on your face then circle the spot and move it to a part of the skin that is spot free.

Here is an example of the removal of a few a boats from the sea…
