Healing Brush Tool

It is another retouching tool of Photoshop. In previous tutorial we learn about Spot Healing tool, so how healing tool is different from spot healing tool?

Basically when we are using spot healing tool we are just moving it on spot and spot gets removed.But in healing tool firstly you have to specify a patch, which will be applied on that spot or desired area which you want to repair.You will find it by holding one of the retouching tools, these all are present in a single icon. Shortcut Key is “J”. he1

Now how to use it?
I will explain it by an example, Here  a pic of a sweet girl but she has some scratches on her face, gifted by her little brother 😛
