Help pls?
1st option. Have photographer do it.
2nd option. Combination of what you used and the patch tool should solve it.
Could be a matter of not enough practice.

Technically that's not lint, it's pilling. Either way, it's a nuisance.
I would use a combination of clone stamp and healing brush (not spot healing brush). Work on a blank layer and use small brushes, about like this:
An advantage of the healing brush is that it will reproduce texture without affecting luminosity. This lets you sample texture from a lighter area and paint it in on a darker area. You'll have to resample very often and paint out one "pill" at a time. It's tedious, but it can be done.

Sample of a small area to illustrate:
+100. View some videos online for clone stamping and the healing brush. Also, here is the lesson, fix it at capture and you won't have to fix it later. An eye for detail can be a 2 minute fix at capture vs. an hour fix in Photoshop.
Peano, thanks for teaching me something new with the definition.
