How to make Restore & Colorize Old Photo with AI — full prompt included

Sample result

Restore and colorize this old/damaged photograph. Repair scratches, tears, creases, stains, fading and blur; reconstruct missing or torn areas naturally; denoise grain while preserving authentic detail. Recover lifelike, era-appropriate natural skin tones, hair, clothing and background colors. Sharpen gently to enhance clarity and resolution. Crucially, keep every person's facial features, identity, age and expression exactly as in the original — do not alter, beautify or modernize the faces. Natural true-to-period colorization, no over-saturation, no plastic skin, no over-sharpening halos.
