# Remove spots and small imperfections

The Spot Healing Brush quickly removes blemishes and other imperfections from your photos. You can either click once on a blemish, or click and drag to smooth away imperfections in an area.

Easily remove spots or imperfections using the Spot Healing Brush tool.

1. In the Editor, select the Spot Healing Brush tool .
2. Choose a brush size. A brush that is slightly larger than the area you want to fix works best so that you can cover the entire area with one click.
3. Choose a Type option in the options bar.
   Proximity Match
     Uses the pixels around the edge of the selection to find an image area to use as a patch for the selected area. If this option doesn’t provide a satisfactory fix, choose Edit > Undo, and try the Create Texture option.
   Create Texture
     Uses all the pixels in the selection to create a texture in which to fix the area. If the texture doesn’t work, try dragging through the area a second time.
     Note: Click All Layers to apply your change to all layers of the image.
4. Click the area you want to fix in the image, or click and drag over a larger area.
