Using the healing brush and clone stamp tool
We start by opening the photo that needs editing, to do that go to file and open. We must assess the areas that need correction or else we destroy the image or made it worse. If you want to remove blemish, red blotches, scars, bruises, etc, we use the healing brush tool which is located on the left hand side. Apply a modest amount when using the healing brush tool because it can distort the image. You can also choose the clone stamp tool; it will copy the color and then apply it to the section that you want.
Color Correction
Open the image in Photoshop, notice if it has color cast, unbalanced shadows, higlights, and midtones.Then, we can change the brightness of the image by going to Image>Adjustments>Levels, adjust the midtones, if you want a darker image move it to the right side and if you want it brighter go to the opposite direction. Also, we can adjust if there is a color cast, example if the image is too green or too blue. Go to Image>Adjustments>Curves, click on the line; this will add dots that we can reconfigure to remove the color cast.
