Retouch Faces, an AI-powered tool introduced in Capture One 16.6.0, makes it easy to get natural high-end retouching results in less time.
The Retouch Faces Tool supports:
- Next Capture Adjustments – on multiple faces, we’ll apply edits in the same face order as the source; if the face order changes, Capture One won’t recognize them
- Copy and Apply – on multiple faces, we’ll apply edits in the same face order as the source; if the face order changes, Capture One won’t recognize them
- Styles and Presets – only global adjustments to all faces are included

How to use the Retouch Faces Tool
You’ll find the tool in the new Retouch Tool Tab.
It detects faces automatically, so you can start editing right away using a few simple sliders.
Apply adjustments to all faces in the image at once, or fine-tune each face individually.
Retouch Faces sliders
Impact controls the overall strength of all other sliders in the Retouch Faces Tool.
Blemishes removes skin distractions while keeping natural skin texture intact. Lower values (0 to 40) target more visible blemishes. Higher values focus on finer distractions.
Dark Circles reduces dark circles under eye while preserving structure and fine lines.
Even Skin smooths out contrast differences across larger skin areas. It keeps highlights and texture, and the Texture slider lets you control how much texture is preserved.
Contouring adds depth to portraits by darkening targeted shadow areas.
