How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your portrait into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, and WebP up to 7MB work best. Higher resolution photos give the AI more detail to work with for natural-looking results.

⏱ Most portraits: 15-30 seconds. Complex lighting or multiple faces: may need a refinement pass.

Describe the look you want

Type your instruction: 'reduce wrinkles naturally while keeping skin texture' or 'smooth forehead lines subtly.' The AI understands faces and applies realistic smoothing. No need to mark specific areas.

💡 Use words like 'subtle,' 'natural,' or 'gently' to avoid an over-processed look. The goal is refreshed, not retouched.

Copy one of these to get started:

Natural portrait enhancement reduce wrinkles naturally while keeping skin texture and character intact

Professional headshot smooth forehead lines and crow's feet subtly, maintain professional natural appearance

Family photo touchup gently soften facial lines on everyone, keep skin looking healthy and natural

Under-eye area only reduce under-eye wrinkles and fine lines while preserving smile lines and natural expression

2 more prompts

More noticeable reduction smooth deep wrinkles and lines while keeping pores and skin texture visible for a refreshed look

Neck and jawline soften neck lines and smooth jawline area naturally, matching the face's skin quality

Review the result

Check that skin texture is preserved and the result looks natural. Zoom to 100% to verify pores and fine details remain visible. The best results are ones where the edit is undetectable.

Refine specific areas if needed

If certain areas need more or less smoothing, tap markers on those spots and adjust your prompt. This is optional—most portraits look great without markers.

💡 Markers help when you want different levels of smoothing in different areas, like more on forehead, less around eyes.

Grandmother wanted to look her best in the family photo. Subtle smoothing refreshed her appearance without changing who she is.

Prompt: gently soften facial lines while preserving smile lines and natural warmth

If something looks off

Skin looks plastic or waxy after smoothing

Why: The AI applied too much smoothing and removed natural skin texture. This happens when the prompt doesn't specify to preserve texture.

Try: reduce wrinkles subtly while preserving skin pores, texture, and natural appearance

💡 Words like 'subtly' and 'preserve texture' tell the AI to use a lighter touch.

AI changed areas I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which areas you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.

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

💡 Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS area specifically.' Use them when you want different treatment for different zones.

Expression looks different or unnatural

Why: Over-smoothing around eyes and mouth can change how expressions read. The AI removed lines that contribute to facial character.

Try: smooth wrinkles gently while preserving smile lines and expression around eyes

💡 Smile lines and eye crinkles are part of genuine expressions—specify keeping them for natural results.

Some wrinkles smoothed more than others

Why: Lighting differences across the face made some wrinkles more visible to the AI than others, leading to inconsistent processing.

Try: Tap markers on the areas that need more smoothing and regenerate with 'smooth this area to match the rest of the face'

💡 For even results, you may need a second pass targeting specific spots that were missed.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the wrinkles before describing?

No—just describe what you want. 'Reduce wrinkles naturally' usually works because the AI understands faces. Markers are only needed if you want different levels of smoothing in different areas, like more on the forehead and less around the eyes.

How do I avoid the over-processed 'plastic' look?

Use words like 'subtle,' 'natural,' or 'gently' in your prompt, and always include 'preserve skin texture.' The goal is results where the edit is undetectable. If results look too smooth, try 'reduce wrinkles slightly while keeping pores visible.'

Can I smooth wrinkles on multiple people in one photo?

Yes. Type 'gently soften facial lines on everyone in the photo' and the AI will apply consistent smoothing across all faces. For different levels per person, process each face separately using markers to specify who you're targeting.

Will this work on neck wrinkles too?

Yes. Include 'and neck' in your prompt: 'smooth facial and neck wrinkles naturally.' For best results, mention 'matching the face's skin quality' so the neck doesn't look more or less processed than the face.
