How does Revamp Old Portraits restore old photos with AI?

The app uses AI image restoration to identify damage like scratches, noise, blur, and fading, then reconstructs detail and improves contrast. You can adjust strength for subtle cleanup or stronger enhancement.

Can it colorize black-and-white portraits?

Yes. Enable optional AI colorization to add realistic tones while keeping a classic look. For best results, start with a clean scan and use moderate settings to avoid oversaturation.

Will it change the person’s face or identity?

The restoration process focuses on recovering lost detail and sharpening features, not altering identity. Using lower restoration strength helps preserve original characteristics and avoids overly stylized changes.

What file types and quality work best for restoration?

High-resolution scans (300–600 DPI) deliver the best results, but low-quality images can still improve. Upload common formats like JPG or PNG, and crop close to the face for better recovery.

Can I use the restored images for printing?

Yes. Use the upscale option to increase resolution, then export a high-quality file for printing. Preview at full size to confirm sharpness and adjust enhancement if needed.
