I recall seeing a demo in PS CS where a portrait retouching wizard was able to tighten up sagging jowles, etc. It was sort of a rubberband tool and not the the healing brush as I recognize it.

What is this called so I can get some info on using it now that I have a use for it.

Thanks

Al,

I think what you are seeking is the Filter>Liquify Tool. It works in several ways, so you may need to experiment with different "tools" within the Liquify dialog. I’ve use it to remove sagging arms, and tummy roles. I’d start with the brush, then move on up to the "mesh," if necessary. Be sure to magnify the area you are working on, so the corrections will be very small.
