And, because what we’re removing is nearly the size of her forehead, the Healing tool won’t have much area to sample from, but we have what I hope will help.

It’s a pretty large hot spot, which will create a problem because it needs a clean area from which to sample. STEP TWO: Make your brush size larger than the hot spot on her forehead. This is the only one of the three that uses Photoshop’s Content-Aware technology to do its thing, and it’s usually pretty decent (not nearly as good as Photoshop’s Healing Brush, mind you, but way better than any tool we’ve had in Lightroom before). STEP ONE: Click on the Healing tool in the toolbar at the top of the right side panels (its icon looks like a bandage), and then in the list of healing tools, click on the only one that actually does a decent job most of the time, Content-Aware Remove (it’s the first one, as shown here).
