How to Remove Cellulite in Photoshop

We've all taken pictures of a subject that reveal some of her physical flaws. If you've taken a digital picture in which cellulite is evident, you can remove that cellulite with the help of a few different tools in Adobe Photoshop. With some practice, you'll be able to remove any type of blemish from a photo, including cellulite.

Instructions

1. Open Photoshop and click "File," and then "Open." Choose the photo from which you want to remove cellulite and click "Open." The photo will appear in Photoshop.

2. Select "Filter" from the top tool bar, and then choose "Blur." Using the radius slider, slide until the image becomes so blurry that you can no longer detect the appearance of cellulite. This will vary depending on how severe it is.

3. Click the camera icon found on the "History" palette. This will take a snapshot of the image and save it. You should then be able to view two images in the history palette. One will be the original image, and one will be the blurred image

4. Highlight the original image by clicking on it so that it turns navy blue. Then, click the empty box to the left of the blurred image, while keeping the original image highlighted. The empty box should now be marked with a brush icon with a circular arrow.

5. Go to "Tools" and select "History Brush." Adjust the brush's size to your image; if it is large, choose a large brush, but if the image is small and fine, choose a smaller brush.

6. Begin painting over the affected area on the main, original image. You are using the blurred image to paint over the original image, so that all of the colors are the same, but you lose the appearance of cellulite. Go over the entire affected area until the appearance of cellulite is gone.
