Here's my shot.

First thing I noticed was that it looked like the print had been excessively dodged around the edge of the person which was creating a bloom. The person looked like a lightbulb. I first resampled the image to a huge dimension - 15000px - using preserve details 2.0 with 90% noise reduction. This removed a bulk of the pixelation and color noise. Next was cc work using the normal procedures, cutting some masks to help define edges. Then a stamp of the whole image was made, turned into a smart object, and placed at the top of the stack. Camera raw was run on this SO to further reduce noise. The image overall is very soft so I didn't even attempt to sharpen. Rather, I added grain to smooth transitions and give it the appearance of nice low speed film.
