Fix a Pixelated Face Online Free

For sharpening a pixelated or low-resolution face in a selfie, profile picture, or old photo so it looks clear again — without changing the image size.

A pixelated or blurry face is the one thing ordinary sharpening can't fix — a sharpen filter exaggerates the blocks and a faithful restoration model won't rebuild the eyes, skin, and hair that were lost. Face restoration is different: it uses a model trained specifically on faces to reconstruct realistic facial detail, so a pixelated face becomes clear and natural-looking. This tool detects the face, restores it with that model, and blends it back into your photo at the original dimensions — the rest of the image is left untouched, and nothing is enlarged. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your photo is never uploaded. One honest note: because the model reconstructs detail rather than reading it from the original, the restored face can look slightly different from the source — it's a faithful likeness, not a pixel-perfect copy. It works best when there's a clear, reasonably large face in the frame; for images with no detectable face, the instant sharpen and the other AI models here work on anything. The face model downloads once on first use (about 325MB) and is then cached for instant reuse. If you also want the photo bigger, run it through the AI Upscaler afterwards.
