If something looks off

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

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which aspects you wanted enhanced from description alone. This happens with complex enhancement requests.

Try:

Tap a marker on the specific area you want enhanced, then regenerate with a focused prompt like 'brighten just this area'

Try This →

Tip: Markers help specify exactly which facial features or areas need targeted enhancement.

Enhancement looks too artificial or over-processed

Why: The AI applied too much enhancement, making the result look unnatural for professional use.

Try: enhance this photo for LinkedIn with subtle, natural improvements that maintain authenticity

Try This →

Tip: Adding 'subtle' and 'natural' in your prompt prevents over-enhancement while maintaining professionalism.

Skin looks too smooth or plastic

Why: Aggressive skin smoothing can make professional photos look fake, which hurts credibility on LinkedIn.

Try: enhance this photo for professional LinkedIn use, improve lighting but keep natural skin texture

Try This →

Tip: Professional headshots should look polished but authentic—natural texture builds trust.

Lighting improvement didn't work as expected

Why: Complex lighting scenarios require more specific guidance about which areas to brighten or soften.

Try: improve the lighting on the face for professional headshot, soften harsh shadows under eyes and nose

Try This →

Tip: Be specific about lighting issues: 'soften shadows', 'brighten eyes', or 'even out face lighting'.

Background cleanup removed too much detail

Why: Aggressive background removal can make the photo look artificial or create unnatural edges around the subject.

Try: lightly clean up background distractions but keep it looking natural for professional use

Try This →

Tip: Use 'lightly clean up' instead of 'remove background' for subtle professional improvements.
