AI face enhancer prompts: 11 retouching fixes for your portrait photos
This set is not about costumes or new scenes. Each prompt fixes one thing in a photo you already have, such as frown lines, red-eye, a scar, braces, under-eye shadows or a soft, blurry shot, while the rest of the picture stays as it was.
Every fix is a Reshot AI template you can open with the photo you want to edit, or you can copy the prompt into another tool. The sample images show before and after halves so you can see what each edit targets.
How these templates use your photo
Each template starts from a photo you pick. The prompt tells the model what to change, and your photo is the reference for everything else. Clear, front-facing photos with even light give the closest match.
