Tool guide

What is AI Photo Restoration and when should you use it?

Tool67 AI Photo Restoration repairs visible damage in old or degraded photographs, including scratches, faded contrast, stains, tears and partially lost detail.

Best image to upload

Scan or photograph the original as straight as possible, keep the whole image in frame and use the highest available resolution. A clean, evenly lit capture gives the model more authentic detail to recover.

Practical ways to use it

  • Repair damaged family photographs and archival prints
  • Recover faces and clothing details from faded images
  • Prepare restored copies for sharing, albums or printing

What to check before publishing

AI can reconstruct plausible detail, but it cannot guarantee exact recovery of information that is completely missing. Severe damage should be reviewed carefully before archival or historical use.

AI Photo Restoration or Old Photo Restore?

Use AI Photo Restoration for visible physical damage and comprehensive repair; choose Old Photo Restore for gentler enhancement of faded vintage portraits. Open Old Photo Restore.

Restore old, faded and damaged photos with AI

Tool67 AI Photo Restoration uses a reference-aware image editing model to repair visible damage while keeping the original person and scene recognizable. It can reduce scratches, dust, fading, compression damage and softness across the entire photograph—not only the face.

Three restoration strengths

What it can improve

Important restoration limits

AI restoration may reconstruct plausible details where the original pixels are missing. For historically important photographs, keep the source file and compare the restored result carefully. The tool is designed to preserve identity and composition, but severe damage can never be recovered with complete certainty.

Which strength should I use?

Balanced is the best starting point. Use Light for valuable photos where preservation matters most, and Strong for obvious scratches or severe fading.

Does it restore the full photo?

Yes. The model edits the full image and can improve damage beyond the face, including clothing, background and surface defects.

Does it colorize black-and-white photos?

The default instructions preserve the original color character. A separate photo colorizer is better when intentional colorization is required.
