Pick the best available original

If you have burst frames, choose the sharpest one before enhancing. AI image enhancer tools cannot outrun a better source.

  • Prefer higher resolution originals over social re-downloads
  • Avoid screenshots of screenshots
  • Skip frames with motion blur on the main subject

One mild pass beats stacked aggression

Run once, inspect, stop. Stacking multiple heavy sharpening passes creates halos around text, jewelry, and hair.

Tip: Watch flat backgrounds. If noise turns into wormy patterns, the enhance is too strong for that source.

Slider QA checklist

Confirm:

  • Crop unchanged
  • Skin/product identity unchanged
  • No neon color shift
  • No halos on high-contrast edges
  • Text (if any) didn’t get crunchy

Order of operations with other apps

Soft photo → enhance first → then remove background or try-on.

Already sharp photo → do the creative edit first; enhance only if the result softened.

When to re-shoot instead

If the face is tiny, the product is out of focus, or compression blocks dominate, regenerating an enhance wastes effort. Take a new photo with better light and distance.
