How Does AI Old Photo Restoration Work?

PixReunion technology uses a multi-step process to bring your old images back to life:
1

Damage Detection

The AI scans your entire image, identifying every type of damage present. It maps scratches, notes areas of fading, locates tears, and catalogs all imperfections that need attention.
2

Intelligent Reconstruction

Using patterns learned from millions of photographs, the AI reconstructs damaged areas. It doesn't just blur over problems — it actually rebuilds missing details based on context clues from the surrounding image.
3

Color Restoration

Faded colors are analyzed and corrected. The AI understands how different dyes and pigments fade over time and reverses these effects to restore natural, vibrant colors.
4

Clarity Enhancement

Old photos often lack the sharpness of modern images. Our AI photo restoration technology enhances details, sharpens edges, and improves overall clarity without creating artificial-looking results, just like what our image upscaler can do.
5

Final Polish

The AI performs a final pass, ensuring seamless blending of all repairs and making subtle adjustments for a natural, cohesive final image.

Types of Damage Our AI Can Repair

Scratches and Scuffs

Surface scratches are among the most common types of photo damage. Whether from handling, improper storage, or accidents, these marks obscure precious details.

Fading and Discoloration

Time, light exposure, and chemical breakdown cause photos to fade. Colors shift, contrast diminishes, and images become washed out.

Tears and Missing Sections

Physical damage like tears, rips, and missing corners present unique challenges. Our AI intelligently reconstructs what should be there.

Water and Moisture Damage

Water damage creates stains, warping, and color bleeding. Our technology separates original image information from damage artifacts.

Creases and Fold Lines

Folded photos develop permanent creases that catch light. The AI smooths these while maintaining natural image texture.

Dust, Debris, and Spots

Decades of storage leave dust spots and specks. Our tool removes these imperfections without affecting legitimate image details.

Mold and Mildew Damage

Photos stored in humid conditions often develop mold damage. The AI can identify and remove mold stains while reconstructing affected areas.

Colorizing Black and White Photos

Beyond restoration, our AI can also breathe new life into black and white photographs by adding realistic color.

Intelligent Color Analysis

Our AI analyzes image content to determine appropriate colors. It applies historically accurate colors for vintage photos and creates natural skin tones, sky colors, and environmental hues.

Preserve Character and Mood

Transform your ancestors' black and white portraits into vibrant color images that feel immediate and alive, while maintaining the character and mood of the original image.
