How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Choose a clear photo where the face is visible and well-lit. Front-facing photos work best for age progression. The AI needs to see facial features clearly to simulate realistic aging effects.

    Expect: Simple case: 15-20 seconds for basic age progression. Complex case: 30-45 seconds for detailed aging with multiple effects.
  2. Describe what you want

    This is the key step. Simply describe how much older you want to look and what aging effects to apply. For example: 'Make me look 30 years older with gray hair and wrinkles' or 'Show me at age 70 with age spots.' The AI understands natural language and applies realistic aging automatically.

    Tip: Be specific about the number of years and mention particular aging effects you want to see like gray hair, wrinkles, or age spots for more realistic results.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    General aging simulation Make me look 30 years older with gray hair and natural wrinkles
    Senior age progression Age this person to 70 years old with age spots and silver hair
    Moderate aging with character Show me 20 years older with crow's feet and laugh lines
    Advanced aging simulation Age me 40 years with deep forehead wrinkles and completely white hair
    3 more prompts
    Graceful aging look Make me look 25 years older with subtle gray streaks and smile lines
    Dramatic aging transformation Age this photo 50 years with liver spots, wrinkles, and thinning hair
    Distinguished older look Show me at 65 with natural gray hair and distinguished facial lines
  3. Review the result

    Check how realistic the aging looks. Look for natural wrinkle placement, appropriate skin tone changes, and believable gray hair distribution. The AI applies aging effects based on how faces naturally age over time.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    This step is optional. If the AI aged the wrong area or you want more precise control over where wrinkles or gray hair appear, tap markers on specific facial areas. Then regenerate with the same prompt for targeted aging effects.

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement, not required. Use them only if you need to emphasize aging in specific facial areas like forehead or around eyes.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Design Visualization

Preview aging changes on your actual photo before committing — make confident design decisions backed by visuals.

Common Scenarios

  • Simulating aging on a room, outfit, or space to evaluate the look
  • Creating client-ready mockups that visualize aging in their specific context
  • Comparing multiple aging options side by side using the same source photo

Best Practices

  • Upload a clear, well-lit photo from the angle you'd naturally view the subject
  • Be specific about the aging — color, material, size, and placement all matter
  • Generate 2-3 variations to have meaningful options to compare
📷

Professional Proposals

Win client approval with realistic aging previews that show exactly what the finished result will look like.

Common Scenarios

  • Building a presentation deck with aging visualizations for a client pitch
  • Showing stakeholders aging options before ordering materials or starting work
  • Creating before-and-after comparisons of aging for a project proposal

Best Practices

  • Use the client's own photos for the most persuasive previews
  • Label each option clearly (Option A, B, C) for easy discussion
  • Note that aging previews are approximations — set expectations about final results
📷

Personal Decision-Making

Try before you buy — preview aging on your own photos to make smarter purchasing and lifestyle decisions.

Common Scenarios

  • Previewing aging before making an expensive purchase
  • Testing how aging looks in your actual space or on your actual person
  • Sharing aging previews with family or friends to get opinions before deciding

Best Practices

  • Upload a photo of the actual space/item/person — generic stock images won't help you decide
  • Try the most different options first (bold vs. subtle) to narrow down your aging preference
  • Save each preview so you can flip between them when comparing

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

The aging looks too extreme or unrealistic

Why: The number of years specified was too high or the AI over-applied aging effects.

Try: Reduce the number of years or use gentler terms like 'subtle wrinkles' instead of 'deep wrinkles'

Tip: Start with smaller age increments like 15-20 years and work your way up for more natural results.

Hair didn't gray enough or stayed too dark

Why: The prompt didn't specifically mention hair color changes.

Try: Add specific hair color instructions like 'with completely gray hair' or 'silver hair' to your prompt

Tip: Mention hair color explicitly in your prompt for consistent graying effects.

Wrinkles appeared in wrong places

Why: Natural aging patterns vary, but the AI might not have placed wrinkles where you expected.

Try: Specify exact locations like 'forehead wrinkles' or 'crow's feet around eyes' in your description

Tip: Reference specific facial areas for more control over wrinkle placement.

The aged face doesn't look like the same person

Why: Extreme aging requests can alter facial structure too much.

Try: Use a smaller age increment or add 'while maintaining facial features' to your prompt

Tip: Keeping age progression under 40 years typically maintains better facial recognition.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark where I want the aging effects?

No, markers are not required. Simply describe how many years older you want to look and the AI automatically applies realistic aging effects to your face. Markers are only needed if you want to emphasize aging in specific areas after seeing the initial result.

How accurate is AI age progression compared to real aging?

AI age progression simulates common aging patterns like wrinkles, gray hair, and skin changes based on how most faces age. While it can't predict your exact future appearance (genetics, lifestyle, and health all play roles), it provides a realistic approximation of typical aging effects over time. Results are best for general visualization rather than precise prediction.

Can I control which aging effects are applied?

Yes, describe specific aging effects in your prompt. Mention wrinkles, gray hair, age spots, or other features you want to see. For example, 'age me 20 years with gray hair but no wrinkles' gives you control over which effects appear.

Does the tool add watermarks to aged photos?

No, EditThisPic never adds watermarks to your age progression photos. Download your results in full quality without any branding or logos.

Can I age multiple people in one photo?

Yes, the AI can age multiple faces in a group photo. Describe whether you want to age everyone equally or specify different aging for different people in your prompt.
