Remove Noise

Advanced method for noise removal.

I know that most of you people would think that there is a Despecle feature in Photoshop.

Well this method provides better results!

Step 1: Open the Image

Step 2: Convert the Image to Lab Color by Image > Mode > Lab Color

Step 3: Go to the channels palette and select Channel "a"

Step 4: Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur (5px)

Step 5: Now select Channel "b"

Step 6: Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur (5px)

Step 7: Now select Channel "Lightness"

Step 8: Filter > Noise > Despecle

Step 9: Image > Mode > RGB Color
