Sure...Clone it out. Select the clone tool and start on your right side make your brush as large as possible and still get consistent light. Then start cloning leftward in fairly small increments. Work at it till you are happy and then select the liquify filter. A little work with the pucker tool and the warp tool will help her.

Thanks Poloman, but mine does not look as good as yours.

Hi, thanks. Do you mind sharing how you did that? I tried the other way and it looked to white.

i went to the filters menu after creating a new layer, and used the pucker tool.. to suck her in a little bit.. then cloned out the crease in her tummy.

then after that i used the burn tool. and chose a color that was slightly darker than her white tummy, and burnedaround there a tiny bit to give the illusion of a slimmer tummy.

i could have done a better job on a full resolution photo. but thats the gist of it.

Thanks Shanny, I will try that too. By the way, can you post a full res. photo? How?
