Frequently asked questions
What does the Photo Restore feature do?
Photo Restore uses AI to repair old and damaged photographs. It removes scratches, creases, dust spots, water stains, and chemical fading. It enhances clarity and contrast, recovers face details, and fixes discoloration—all while preserving the original film grain and authentic texture that gives old photos their character.
Will my restored photo look artificial or over-smoothed?
No. Our AI is specifically designed to preserve the authentic feel of vintage photographs. It repairs damage without over-smoothing, keeping the original film grain and paper texture intact. The result looks like a well-preserved original—not a digitally altered modern photo.
Can it restore severely damaged photos?
Yes! Our AI can handle significant damage including deep scratches, large creases, water stains, severe fading, and yellowing. It uses advanced in-painting to seamlessly repair damaged areas while preserving underlying details.
Will it colorize black-and-white photos?
Not automatically. Photo Restore keeps your original color mode but optimizes it. Black-and-white photos stay black-and-white but with improved contrast and clarity. If you specifically want colorization, that would be a separate feature.
Do I need to create an account?
No accounts, no logins, no forms. Just upload your old photo, let our AI restore it, and download your repaired image.
Is this free?
Yes, you'll get a few Photo Restorations for free to try it out. We'll be adding upgrade options for more transformations soon.
What kind of photos can I restore?
Any old or damaged photograph! Family portraits, heritage photos, vintage images, faded prints, water-damaged photos, scratched negatives, and more. Our AI works on various types of photographic damage and degradation.
Is this different from your other transformations?
Yes. Photo Restore focuses exclusively on repairing physical damage and age-related degradation. It doesn't enhance your appearance, change backgrounds, or add creative effects. Other transformations like Editorial Studio or Background Change focus on creative enhancements rather than restoration.
