Use the uploaded old photo as the source image and restore, repair, and enhance it while preserving its original identity, composition, and color mode.

blur or softness
faded details
low resolution
scratches
stains
dust
creases
tears
noise or grain
washed-out contrast
damaged edges
discoloration caused by age
Restoration requirements
Make the photo clearer, cleaner, and sharper
Restore facial features, clothing details, background details, and important objects naturally
Improve overall clarity and legibility without making the image look fake or overprocessed
Keep the restored image realistic and faithful to the original photo
Color preservation rule
If the original photo is black-and-white or sepia, keep it black-and-white / sepia and do not colorize it
If the original photo is already in color, preserve and restore the original color style
Do not change the original mood by converting black-and-white to color or color to black-and-white
Maintain the original visual character of the image
Style and quality
Preserve the people’s original facial identity, age, expression, hairstyle, and clothing
Keep the original pose, framing, and background structure
Gently enhance contrast, brightness, and detail
Reduce damage and blur while keeping natural skin texture and authentic photo texture
Make the image look like a professionally restored version of the same photo, not a newly generated modern image
Important restrictions
Do not alter identity
Do not invent major new details
Do not beautify excessively
Do not oversmooth faces
Do not add unrealistic sharpness
Do not change the era feeling of the photo
Do not change the original color type
Final goal
Create a clean, repaired, high-quality restored version of the old photo that is much clearer and more complete, while maintaining its original black-and-white or color appearance.
