He looks like much more nicer than ever, doesn't he? ^.^
Now, let's start!
Open your portrait photo. I use this photo :

ALT+CLICK on the skin' smooth area and then brushing on bad area.
Repeat this action to smooth bad areas:
He looks better? OK, you did good job! Let's continue!
Pick Lasso Tool
Draw a selection around his face :
Continue hold ALT+drag to remove eyes and lip area...

Go to menu Select ~> Feather ~> 5px. OK
Right click on selection and choose Layer Via Copy.
A new layer will appear up on layer background.
Go to menu Filter ~> Noise ~> Median...
A dialog box will appear on the screen:
