What Is AI Photo Restoration?
AI photo restoration uses artificial intelligence to repair old, faded, or damaged photos and recover details that have become difficult to see. It can repair scratches, tears, fading, blur, stains, and noise while preserving the original subject and composition.
Instead of manually retouching each damaged area, AI automatically analyzes the whole photo and uses surrounding visual information to restore lost contours, textures, tones, and details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will AI photo restoration change the person's face?
No intentional face replacement or beautification is applied during restoration. Facial features, expressions, and age characteristics are kept true to the original so the person remains recognizable.
Can severely damaged old photos still be restored?
It depends on how much original information is still visible. Scratches, tears, fading, and partially missing areas can often be repaired, but large missing sections or completely lost facial details may limit how accurately the photo can be restored.
Will AI invent details that are missing from my photo?
Missing or unclear areas are handled conservatively using visual information that remains in the photo. If the source does not provide enough evidence for a detail, the restoration avoids adding unsupported details.
Will black-and-white photos be automatically colorized?
No. Black-and-white or monochrome photos remain that way during restoration. For faded color photos, the tool focuses on recovering the existing color character rather than applying a new color style.
Is AI Photo Restoration free to use?
Yes. Each restoration uses only 1 credit. You can get free credits through sign-up rewards, check-ins, friend invitations, and other available reward activities, so the tool can be used without paying.
Are my uploaded photos private?
Yes. Your photos remain private during restoration and are securely processed. Uploaded images are automatically deleted after 24 hours.
