Instead of wasting your time with complicated programs, you can use Gemini to repair old photos: upload the damaged photo, write a clear prompt, and it will fix problems such as scratches, noise, color fading, and low resolution, then give you a cleaner, ready-to-save copy.
✅ Steps (practical)
- Open Gemini and upload the old/damaged photo.
- Type "clear repair" (copy the template below).
- Ask it to:
- Clean up scratches and spots
- Improve clarity and detail
- Correct colors and lighting
- Keep facial features as they are
- If minor errors appear, request a second adjustment instead of redoing everything: "Keep the face, reduce smoothing, and increase sharpness slightly."
🧩 Prompt ready to fix photos (copy as is)
"Fix this old photo while keeping the same people and features exactly the same. Remove scratches, spots, and dust, improve clarity and detail, correct lighting and colors naturally, reduce noise without excessive smoothing, and make the result realistic. Do not add new people, change facial features, or significantly alter the background. Produce a high-quality copy.”
🎯 If the problem is specific (choose what suits you and add it to the prompt)
- “Face is unclear: Improve facial details without changing features.”
- "Image is dull: Rebalance colors naturally."
- “There is a tear on the side of the image: Realistically complete the missing part.”
- “Image isblurry: Improve sharpness while reducing blur.”
🧭 Golden Compass Tip
You get the best results when your request is very specific:
Mention what you want to fix (scratches/colors/clarity) and mention what you don't want to change (faces/identity/background).
This way, you avoid "changing features" and get a natural restoration.
