Facial hair removal with Photoshop

9 years 8 months ago #398566 by EOS_Fan
I just photographed a woman who has all sorts of fine hair on her face and I need to figure out an easy way of removing this.  Can you help me out with how this is done please?

I have Lightroom too if there is easier method there.  

Thank you

You could always use the clone stamp

Your best bet is likely frequency separation. Dealing with the color/tones will be easy; it's the detail of the hairs that is going to be tough to manage effectively while retaining realism. Does the customer want plastic skin? If so, you're in like Flynn.

Oops. Showing my age here.

Now wouldn't the Smug tool work on something like this?
