I have found making a good scan to work from the basic starting point.
Then progressive and slow repair with all the tools you have available 
in PS, in my case CS2.

In this example, a shot of my father and grandfather, the crease is 
obvious on my grandfather's right side. The scan leaves deep shadows, 
some of which are best to minimize rather to completely clone, or 
patch, as the texture of the jacket would be ruined. I managed to fix 
the obvious problem, and the in the final result cured my father of 
smoking (something he hasn't done in 50 years. he is still a healthy 
86).
