I saw a show on TV the other day (Maybe it was PM magazine, not sure) that showed an advertiser touching up the pictures. They used a complex computer system that could do anything from changing the color of the models eyes and hair, removing all those skin blemishes, and just about anything else. Next they showed a cosmetic surgeon that used the system to show his patients what they would look like after a nose job, face lift, or whatever.
