Sorry I didn’t see the original post. Try this:
1. Gaussian blur the image fairly heavily. Apply enough blur to make the stubble disappear.
2. Set this state to be the history state in the History Palette
3. In the History Palette now return to the previous state prior to
blurring the image.
4. Select the History Brush, change the opacity to 25% or so and the mode to "lighten"
5. Paint over the stubble with repeated brush strokes until the stubble disappears to your liking.
Enjoy.

I have a photograph of a man with a 1 1/2 day beard growth – black stubble. How can I give him a Photoshop shave?
