raising the black point in levels can remove the gradient, but at the cost of also losing some of the fainter areas in the outer arms of the galaxies..

You could try selecting the galaxy, expand and feather the selection and then brighten the galaxy... Then, invert the selection and raise the black point for the background sky...

I've never tried this, but in theory, it should achieve what you are looking for.
