Glass Skin
Editorial skin — pores stay, blemishes go. Plus 3× ultra-sharp upscale.
What it does
Removes blemishes, acne, and uneven texture while preserving natural pores, skin tone, and undertone. Editorial-grade retouch with 3× upscale — eyes, brows, and hair stay untouched.
When to use it
- Profile pictures with clean, editorial-grade skin
- Dating, LinkedIn, or press photos where blemishes distract
- Portrait sessions where lighting was harsh — uneven texture cleaned up
- Lookbook, brand, or campaign visuals that need a unified beauty finish
- Wedding and event photos elevated to magazine quality
When not to use it
- Documentary or evidentiary use where every spot must remain visible
- Permanent moles, scars, or birthmarks the subject wants kept
- Heavy makeup or full face transformations — choose Recreate or Game Style
- Non-portrait photos (landscapes, products) — designed for skin
How it works
Glass Skin runs the same generative edit model as Recreate but with a beauty-editorial prompt that locks identity, eyes, brows, beard, and hair, then corrects only blemishes and uneven skin texture on face and arms. The pipeline ends with a 3× ultra-sharp upscale. Results typically return in about 15 seconds on GPU infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions
Will my face look plastic or airbrushed?
No. The prompt explicitly preserves natural pores and forbids the plastic-skin effect. The result is clean but still real skin — the kind of finish a high-end beauty editorial retoucher delivers.
Will my skin tone change?
No. The prompt fully preserves the original skin tone and undertone, and forbids over-brightening or darkening. Any complexion stays true.
Will my eyes, eyebrows, or hair change?
No. Eyes, eyebrows, eyelashes, beard, and hair are explicitly off-limits. Only skin on the face and arms is retouched.
Will it remove permanent marks like moles or scars?
It targets blemishes, acne, blackheads, temporary spots, and uneven texture. Permanent moles and scars usually survive — but if you have one you want kept for sure, mention it; in some cases an alternative model is safer.
Does it work on dark or deeply pigmented skin?
Yes. The prompt is written to be suitable for any complexion and to keep the original tone — it will not lighten dark skin.
Is the result watermarked?
No. upsa never watermarks or brands your output. The result is yours — save, print, share anywhere.
Where are my photos stored?
Photos are processed temporarily and auto-deleted within 48 hours. We do not keep copies and we do not train models on your photos.
