CORRECTING COLOR BALANCE

 STEP 1

  First duplicate the background layers (CTRL+J). There is a black mole on the face remove it using clone stamp tool or patch tool. I prefer patch tool because it give more realistic result. Right click on healing brush and  select the patch tool and then encircle the mole then click and drag it and drop it at any  place where there is no mole after that press CTRL + D for deselect. And also adjust the sharpness at .5 at 100% amount (filter/sharpness/unsharpened mask). And set Gaussian blur at 1(Filter/blur/Gaussian blur)

STEP 2

 Open a new level adjustment layer (layers/new adjustment layer/ level). Press ok .Open red channel (CTRL+1) and set input level at 20, 1,202, for green channel (CTRL+2) set it at 9, 1,184 and for blue channel (CTRL+3) set input level at 0, 1,141 and press ok.

STEP 3

 Open a new adjustment layer of color balance (layers/new adjustment layer/color balance) press ok And set the following color levels. For shadow set it at +2,-3, +3, for Midtones set it at +10,-13, +16 and for Highlight set it at -3,-5, +2 and then press ok.

STEP 4

 Open a new adjustment layer of brightness and contrast (Layers/New adjustment layers /Brightness and contrast) then press ok and set the value of Brightness at +5 and contrast at +4 and then press ok.
