    Depending upon the image, create a separate layer (copy the background) and do your adjustments focusing only on the face. Ignore what it does to anything else - blot it out of your mind.

    When you are done, add a layer mask to the tweaked copy layer, fill with black, and then start erasing the mask from around the face only.
