How to remove hair shadow from the armpit

Hello.

I have a "little" problem with one of the last models I shooted.

As you may know some details are only viewables after the session because of the flashes. That was the issue. I didn't realize it during the shooting, but when in Lightroom: Boom!

I tried many things without success.

You can see what I'm talking about in the picture attached.

Thankx in advance for any help.

Hello, again:

That's what I get after retouching, but I'm not fully satisfied.

It's something I'd do in curves really on PS..

To me this is an easy Photoshop fix. In Lightroom I'd probably try using the colour swatch in Masking's Brush too. I'd sample the correct colour and then paint over the bad area. You may need to play with the brush Saturation and Exposure too.

You're right.

This is easier with PS, but I was trying a quicker way.

I will try what you're proposing to me.

Thanks for your help.
