Need Tips/Help Editing

[Kirstin Kasper]

Hi there. I was wondering if someone could give me some help. I have a bunch of family photos that we're putting together into a photo book. My father had surgery to remove cancer from his jaw a couple months ago and the swelling is really noticeable in the photos. He would like the "bump" corrected. I have no idea how to go about fixing them.

I've attached one of the photos. He is the one in the blue denim shirt.

could be a bit tricky but very possible

You could probably use the other side of his jaw to replace the swelled area. but not seeing him and not knowing what he looked like before it would only be a guess.

Try liquify, a little clone and a little painting.

Just used the clone tool and some touching here and there.

I had no idea the liquefy tool even existed. It works great for what I need.

Show us your results then, now you have the tools and knowledge.

It's not an extreme change, but it looks better than it did
