AI-generated example result for the prompt: Flawless Skin Portrait Retouch Old Image to New Image by Prompt Craft
Example result generated from this prompt.
Prompt
Subject : Use reference image as subject from uploaded reference image only, keeping the person fully recognizable.
Input Condition & Retouching Goal
The uploaded photo is a vintage military service photo showing visible skin imperfections such as acne, blemishes, uneven skin tone, fine lines, minor wrinkles, redness, or textural roughness caused by aging, lighting, or the original camera quality. The objective is a natural, professional-grade face smoothing pass that improves skin clarity and evenness without erasing the subject's authentic identity or turning the skin into an artificial, plastic, over-blurred surface.
Technical Retouching Process
Apply frequency separation style AI smoothing to even out skin tone, reduce visible pores where excessive, soften fine lines, and calm redness or blotchiness, while carefully preserving natural skin texture, pores, and subtle imperfections that give the face a believable, human quality. Blend the smoothed regions seamlessly into surrounding areas like the hairline, eyebrows, and jaw so there is no visible masking edge or unnatural transition. Balance color correction to unify tone across the forehead, cheeks, and chin without shifting the overall skin color or undertone.
Output Quality & Resolution
Deliver a high-resolution, natural-looking retouched portrait where skin appears healthy, even, and refined while still showing authentic texture under close inspection. Lighting, shadow, and highlight distribution on the face should remain consistent with the original photograph, and overall sharpness should be enhanced only where it supports a clean, professional finish rather than an artificially airbrushed look.
Special Instructions
Preserve the subject's identity with absolute fidelity to the reference image, maintaining 100% facial and anatomical likeness. Keep all facial features, expressions, age, ethnicity, skin tone, hair, and unique details such as moles, scars, freckles, and natural asymmetry exactly unchanged. Retain the original body proportions, posture, and biometric characteristics without unwanted modifications. Do not replace the face with a generic AI appearance or alter the person's true identity in any way. Do not alter eye shape, nose structure, lip shape, jawline, or any core facial geometry while smoothing skin; only surface-level skin quality should be improved. The final retouched image should look like a professionally edited photograph rather than an AI-generated face, keeping the person fully identifiable to friends and family while presenting their best natural appearance.

Apply natural, professional face smoothing and skin retouching while preserving identity. Perfect your portraits with Prompt Craft.

Which AI model works best for face smoothing?
