This would not only take too much time but was also very inconveniencing.

The type and level to which degradation has occurred in a photograph will determine the particular technique to be used to restore it. In case of photos that are fading, Photoshop is used in restoration of their dynamic range and contrast. This is able to be achieved through the use of level tools and image histogram. These are used to adjust the black and white contrast of the image. Also to be adjusted is the overall brightness. Fine tuning of fading backgrounds is done using opacity, lightness and curve tools.

Localized damage can be combated using cloning and healing brushes. The clone stamp tool assists in reconstruction of the full image characteristics from damaged ones. The healing brush on the other hand is used in texture replacement by reconstruction from the initial photograph.
