How it works

  1. Upload the portrait

    Drop in the photo with the piercings — nose, lip, eyebrow, or ears. A clear, front-facing headshot works best. JPG, PNG or WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Small studs and rings clear in 15-30 seconds. Stretched or large-gauge piercings may need a second pass.
  2. Name the piercings to remove

    Type 'remove the nose ring, the lip stud, and the earrings, and rebuild the skin naturally.' Listing each spot means none get missed.

    Tip: Add 'leave no holes or marks' so the rebuilt skin is smooth.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Job interview headshot remove all visible piercings and rebuild the skin smoothly for a professional headshot
    Nose ring only remove the nose ring and close the piercing so the skin looks natural
    Passport photo remove the earrings and nose stud for a passport photo, keep the face natural and evenly lit
    Lip and eyebrow remove the lip ring and eyebrow piercing, rebuild the lip and brow line naturally
    2 more prompts
    Keep ears, remove nose remove only the nose piercing, keep the earrings in place
    Stretched ear (gauge) remove the ear gauge and rebuild the earlobe to a natural closed shape
  3. Check each spot

    Zoom in on the nose, lip, and ears. Each piercing should be gone with clean skin — no leftover hole, dot, or shadow. Regenerate any that remain.

  4. Download the clean photo

    Save the result. With the piercings gone, the photo fits an interview, a passport submission, or a plainer profile.

Quick answers

How do I remove a piercing from a photo for free?

Upload the portrait to EditThisPic, list the piercings ('remove the nose ring and earrings and rebuild the skin'), and download. The free tier is one preview edit per week, no signup; purchased downloads are clean.

Will it leave a hole or mark?

Only if you don't ask it to close them. Add 'close the holes and leave smooth skin' and the AI rebuilds the area so there's no leftover dot or shadow.

Can it remove some piercings but keep others?

Yes. Name exactly what to remove and what to keep — 'remove the nose ring, keep the earrings.' Being specific avoids clearing jewelry you wanted to leave.

Is this good for passport photos?

Yes, when your passport rules ask for no visible jewelry. Remove the studs and rings and keep the face evenly lit and natural for a compliant photo.

Does it handle stretched ears or gauges?

It can, but larger gauges need the earlobe rebuilt, so check the lobe closely and regenerate if the shape looks off. Small studs and rings are much easier.

Is there a watermark?

No. EditThisPic never watermarks output on any tier.

Do I need an account?

No. Upload, describe, and download without signing up. An account only helps you save edits.

Which photo works best?

A clear, front-facing headshot in even light gives the cleanest skin rebuild. Angled or low-light shots make small piercings harder to clear.

How much does EditThisPic cost?

You get 1 free edit per week — no account needed. After that, one-time credit packs start at $4.99 for 10 edits, valid 12 months, no subscription. Power users who edit daily can pick Studio Membership, a monthly workspace at $49.99/mo for 300 edits. Purchased downloads are clean with no watermark.
