Retouching is an art...although PP makes it quicker and easier. You really need to know what to touch up, how much, and where. If I look at a photo and it is obvious that touch ups occurred in it, I don't enjoy it. Wrinkles and scars are a part of life, and should not be taken away, even in touch ups. They should be carefully dealt with and softened to bring out the parts of the face that you want the viewer to notice (i.e. eyes). I would like to see you work on this photo again and see peoples reactions to lighter using of PP.
