Try cloning a similar area instead. Make sure you zoom in and work in small steps and make your brush size smaller if you want to work in more detaill.
The best way to clone is this:
- select the clone tool
- set the option marked in the screenshot to All Layers
- add a new empty layer on top of your photo
- start cloning on that new layer
What happens is that all your edits will be added to this new layer, without affecting the original. Now if you make a mistake, you simply grab the eraser, delete your mistake on this layer and continue with the cloning.
This method is way more flexible than working on a copy of the original image. Lots of tools have this option. When you use the spot healing brush it's called Sample All Layers.
