In Photoshop, when you erase, some pixels are removed. To keep only the area within a specific radius and avoid darkening the surrounding pixels, adjust your eraser settings to target just the defined circle without affecting the edges. Use the Eraser tool with a soft brush or a custom mask to refine the selection precisely.

This feature is known as feathering or anti-aliasing. A toggle switch is available for Anti-Aliased; selecting it enables it, while disabling it sets the Feathering value to zero pixels.

You're missing it in your settings menu. Check the app store or your device's settings for the correct location.

Click right to explore additional settings like brush choices with the eraser. Adjust Hardness to 100 for maximum feathering or anti-aliasing, which gives a sharp edge. Note: This setting comes from an older Photoshop version.

Ensure the application uses a solid brush instead of a feather one

It was consistently at 100, so I ended up applying the box tool to highlight what I wanted removed.

Press ALT plus the mouse wheel button. Adjust the size by moving the mouse up or down, and change thickness by dragging left or right. This feature is available in Photoshop CC, though I'm unsure about its status in Photoshop CS6.

In my Photoshop process I avoid relying on the Eraser Tool directly. I opt for masking techniques and then transform it into a selection, or I work with the Selection Tool straight away. The advantage here is that I can leverage Refine Edge to... well... sharpen the edges, adjust shift settings, modify contrast levels, and add feathering as needed.
