Will Blemish Remove erase moles, freckles, scars, or skin texture?

No. Dark-only identity-like marks, broad redness, pores, stubble, wrinkles, and unproven spots are deliberately protected. Only compact red anomalies with strong source-local evidence can receive a bounded correction.

Why not remove blemishes the same way virtual staging edits a room?

Virtual staging intentionally synthesizes large replaceable room regions. Facial marks can be identity-defining, so this effect requires one verified face, accepts only compact red source evidence, uses bounded local color and luminance repair, and refuses uncertainty instead of asking a generator to redraw skin.

About the Blemish Remove effect

Blemish Remove clears small red spots and leaves the rest of the face alone. It does not smooth, blur or redraw anything. Each face is checked on its own: its full shape is mapped, skin is separated from hair, beard, clothing and background, and the eyes, brows, nose, lips and the edge of the face are protected before detection starts. Only compact red marks that stand out from the surrounding skin tone and pass strict size, shape and count limits are selected; each is repaired using the skin immediately around it, keeping the natural texture. Moles, freckles, scars, broad redness and anything the checks are unsure about are deliberately kept — nothing that could be part of how you look is removed. Everything outside the repaired spots is copied straight into a lossless PNG. In a group photo every face is handled separately.

How it works

Processing

Blemish Remove uses an AI action. Any separate allowance is shown before this effect starts processing.

Best for

sharp, low-noise, near-front portraits with a complete face and an uncovered forehead, eyebrows, eyes, cheeks, nose, lips, jaw and chin — one person or a whole group.

Less suited to: side profiles, tilted or cropped faces, glasses, hair or hands covering features, very small faces in a wide shot, noisy or grainy photos, motion blur, broad areas of redness, and dark-only marks, which are kept on purpose.

Ways to use Blemish Remove

Reduce isolated temporary red spots while dark-only moles, freckles, scars, pores, stubble, wrinkles, and facial shape remain source-exact.
Retouch a close portrait without changing the eyes, brows, nose, lips, hair, beard, lighting, clothing, background, or framing.
Use intensity to control a bounded source-local correction while every pixel outside accepted compact blemish masks stays unchanged.
