I use Photoshop and never have used Elements so I really can't tell if these features are available in there or not. I did a quick 3 minutes sample job so didn't care if my blur was in boundary or not.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

I use a different method I zoom in on the effected parts that I want to change then use the smudge tool to take out the shine. Start with a low setting like 20% strong. This is using elements which came with the 10D Canon EOS 10D w/ BG-ED3 GRIP( sold ),Canon EOS 40D w/ BG-E2n Grip X 2, Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L, Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L[COLOR=black],Canon 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III, Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS,Canon 580 EX II x 2, LightSphere II Clear X 2, Quantum Turbo Battery Pack

If you have Elements 3 and can get hold of Scott Kelbey's "Photoshop Elements 3 Book", he has specific instructions for "removing hot spots." I don't think it proper I plagarize his book here.

I duped the laer and applied heavy (4 I think) gaussian blur. Aded layer mask on the blurrer (2nd) layer and painted on the layer mask using 30 opacity brush.
