FAQ

Photo Restoration FAQ

Common questions about restoring old and damaged photos with Imaginify

What is photo restoration?

Photo restoration is the process of repairing old or damaged photos so they look clearer, cleaner, and easier to preserve. That can include fixing scratches, dust, stains, fading, weak contrast, and worn facial detail while keeping the original image recognizable.


How does this AI photo restoration tool work?

Imaginify analyzes damage patterns, faded areas, edge softness, and facial or scene detail, then uses AI to repair those weak spots in one guided workflow. It is designed to improve the same photo rather than replace it with a new composition.


Can I restore old photos online for free?

You can start with free credits and test the photo restoration workflow directly in your browser. If you need more runs or repeated restoration work, paid plans are available.


Can it fix scratches, creases, and dust spots?

Yes, that is one of the main use cases. The tool is designed to reduce visible scratches, dust marks, stains, and worn print damage, although very severe damage can still limit how much detail can be recovered.


Does this also colorize black and white photos?

This page focuses on repair and detail recovery, not full colorization. If your main goal is to add realistic color to a black and white image, use Imaginify Colorize Photo after or instead of photo restoration.


What kinds of photos work best?

The tool works well on old family portraits, printed snapshots, historical images, faded travel photos, and lightly to moderately damaged scans. Results depend on how much original structure is still visible in the source.


Will the restored photo keep the original composition?

That is the goal. The workflow is tuned to preserve the original pose, scene layout, clothing, and facial identity while cleaning up damage and restoring missing clarity.


Can I use restored photos for archive or client work?

In general, yes, as long as you have the rights to the source image and your use follows the platform terms. That can include family archives, memorial projects, editorial work, presentations, and client deliverables.
