I'm into reality, so I think the original is fine. But, if you want to sidestep reality a tad into 'pleasing portraiture', then the second ones cool. The third one looks weird. Leave the chins. Facial recognition is hardwired in us. The ever so slightest deviation is very noticeable

Looks good! I would use levels or curves to brighten it a bit.

That's a good first effort. Skin tones seem to have a little too much red and blue in them. And it's always a judgment call how
much "experience" you want to take out of a face. Also, with skin "smoothing" techniques, need to be careful not to remove
skin texture.

Sorry
this is my humble contribution
Dodge on eyes, teeth, slightly blur on face, clone shoulder trap, dark background and...obviously a crop
I've made it as far as I can....
For better result, you should do it carefully
tell me if that annoy you

I have to admit I cheated a bit and used obkcaptain's edit above then made some additional changes. Hope you don't mind.
