Best practice is to overscan, then make the move by making the "fat" of the image smaller so Photoshop doesn't have "create" image information. Shrink the fat side rather than expand the thin side... then adjust the image size, round down in size.
And try to do it all in one move rather than a series of tweaks. Use the "Free Transform" tool rather than the more limited rotate, skew, perspective, scale tools.
Doing it all in one move is less degrading to the image than doing a series of moves.
When you want to get really rad, explore the "Liquify" filter ;-)
