Reveal or conceal with black and white brushes.
After removing the background, you might see some leftover bits around the edges of your subject. Use the white brush to reveal and the black brush to conceal any remaining unwanted pixels.
Refine your edges.
Double-check the edges of the object you cut out to make sure you’re happy with your selection, particularly around intricate areas such as animal fur or human hair. Use the Refine Edge Brush tool to seamlessly blend the subject with its new background.
Try a transparent background.
Make a white background transparent to isolate your subject so you can use it in a variety of ways. You can pop your newly isolated subject, logo, or branding onto website headers, email signatures, ads, and more.
Generate background instantly with descriptive text prompts.

How to remove a background in Photoshop.
Pick your photo. Open your image in the Layers panel and unlock the layer.
Click to remove. In the Properties panel, click Remove Background under Quick Actions or in the Contextual Task Bar.
Refine your edges. Use the Brush tool to clean up any remaining small bits of background.
Replace your background. Drag and drop a new image onto the canvas, then use the Transform tool to resize it to fit your desired dimensions. Press Enter / Return to finalize.
Move it to the back. In the Layers panel, drag the new image underneath the original one.
It is a one-click preset that instantly removes the background from an image using Subject Select and the background deletion capabilities in Photoshop.
It is located in the Quick Actions panel in Photoshop. Click the + icon in the Quick Actions panel and search for "Remove Background."
It uses Subject Select to automatically detect and select the main foreground subject, create a layer mask, and delete the leftover background layer.
Photoshop Remove Background works best on images with high contrast between subject and background. Portraits, products, and still objects tend to produce good results.
Remove Background is much faster and more automatic than manually erasing the background with the Eraser tool. However, the manual eraser allows more custom control if needed.
The Remove Background tool creates both a selection around the subject and a layer mask to isolate it from the background.
