What it can repair
What can old photo restoration repair?
02
Make blurry photos clearer
Improve eyes, hair and facial edges while portrait restoration refers closely to visible features in the source photo.
03
Recover black-and-white and faded color
Balance dark areas and color casts so skin, clothing and background tones look more natural. Black-and-white photos can also be colorized.
04
Keep texture easy to inspect
Avoid heavy smoothing and plastic texture so you can compare the face, hands, edges and color with the original.
