How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop any photo into EditThisPic. Selfies, casual photos, or existing headshots all work. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple fixes like lighting: 15-20 seconds. Background removals: 25-30 seconds.

  2. Describe your ideal profile photo

    Type what you want: 'remove the background and add a professional blue backdrop' or 'fix the lighting and remove blemishes.' Be specific about the look you want. The AI understands profile photo needs like clean backgrounds, professional lighting, and subtle retouching.

    Tip: Combine multiple fixes in one prompt: 'remove background, fix lighting, and smooth skin'

  3. Download your professional photo

    Review your transformed profile picture and download in high resolution. Perfect for LinkedIn, social media, or professional profiles. If you want additional adjustments, just describe them.

  4. Use markers for precise retouching

    If you need to target a specific area like a blemish or stray hair, tap markers on those spots and describe the fix. Most profile photo edits work perfectly without markers.

    Tip: Markers are helpful when you want to remove a specific blemish without affecting surrounding skin

If something looks off

Skin looks too smooth or plastic after editing

Why: The AI may have over-corrected skin smoothing

Try: Try 'very subtly smooth skin while keeping natural texture'
Try This →

Tip: Use words like 'subtle', 'slight', or 'natural' to avoid over-processing

Background removal left artifacts around hair edges

Why: Fine hair details can be challenging to separate from backgrounds

Try: Try 'clean up the edges around my hair' or use markers on problem areas
Try This →

Tip: Solid color backgrounds (white, gray, blue) hide edge issues better than gradients

Teeth whitening looks unnatural

Why: The AI may have whitened too aggressively

Try: Try 'slightly whiten teeth while keeping them natural looking'
Try This →

Tip: Natural teeth have subtle color variation - overly white teeth look fake

Angle adjustment distorted my face

Why: Major angle changes require more facial reconstruction

Try: Start over with a smaller adjustment: 'slightly straighten the angle'
Try This →

Tip: For significant angle issues, it's better to take a new photo from the right angle

Quick answers

How do I make a casual photo look like a professional headshot?

Just describe the transformation: 'make this look like a professional headshot with studio lighting and a clean background.' The AI will adjust lighting, background, and overall polish to create a business-ready profile photo from any casual shot.

Can I edit my profile picture for free without a watermark?

Yes! EditThisPic is free to try with no signup required. You can remove backgrounds, fix lighting, and enhance your profile photos without any watermarks on the final images.

What's the best background for a LinkedIn profile photo?

Professional recruiters recommend solid colors like white, light gray, or soft blue. Try 'replace background with professional light gray backdrop' or 'add a clean white background.' Avoid busy patterns or distracting scenes.

How do I remove blemishes without looking over-edited?

Use natural language like 'subtly remove blemishes while keeping natural skin texture' or 'lightly smooth skin without making it look plastic.' The key words 'subtle' and 'natural' help the AI make realistic improvements.

Can I use the same style across all my social media profiles?

Yes! Once you get a look you like, use similar prompts for all your photos. For example, 'professional headshot style with neutral background and warm lighting' will create consistent branding across LinkedIn, Twitter, and other platforms.
