I have attached a pair of images for the before and after of a photo restoration. Can you actually believe it? Where did the restorer get the crease pattern or the design of the jacket for the man on the left?

Perhaps channel surfing and certainly artistry.

What is channel surfing? Is it a new technique?

I would guess when you edit you probably use an RGB colour space to do so, as you obviously know there are many other colour spaces you could edit in and with them different channels. By converting to different colour spaces to see the channels you are giving yourself a lot more options to edit with.

Sean Baker has kindly created an action for this, so you can keep in the RGB space and have the benefits of 12 extra channels.

What channel can be removed from the original picture to improve it?

As a rule you don't remove channels, you may replace them with other channels. Or you duplicate them and work on the duplicate. If you have a scanned original digital image, you will often find the worst damage in particular channels. Having more channels to work from, just means being able to isolate damage in certain channels and to use the extra channels as an aide in restoration.
