How to equalize collors when sunlight on the face

[miso]

Hi,

Can you please help me with the correction of the photo when there is a sun shining on the part of the face.
I have this part of photo when I see to much sun and it making shadow areas. The rest of the face is in shadow so instead of removing the shadow, I would need to remove just this piece of unwanted reflection and make the half of the forehead simliar to the other one.

   

Do you have idea if this can be corrected or I can just get rid of this photo?

Thanks,
Miso

Hard to tell without seeing the rest. The problem is about as much the overexposed reflection as the hard shadow over it. On a face its is extremeyl difficult to do something local that doesn't look like a birthmark or a skin graft.

Okay I know... but I couldn't resist.
Depending on the symmetry of the face in the hidden part, it might even work.


Here we just inverted the left over the right and made some adjustments using layer masks.

I copied the area above the shadow to the shadow just below and then a little blending with the healing brush and a small adjustment to slightly darken the area with color curves.
