When it seemed that Photoshop could not add more functions, Artificial Intelligence arrived. Thanks to Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning, functions can be created based on algorithms that are trained with a large number of photographs, both to recognize objects and to add pixels to a photograph that do not exist. They are also used, within Photoshop, to remove objects, replace tones, and much more. One of the most attractive functions of Photoshop is the one that allows us to modify the smile in a natural way.
But, in addition to modifying the smile, we can also modify the size of the nose and eyes as well as modifying the shape of our face without forgetting the function that allows us to take off a few extra kilos, a function that we talked about a few days ago in this article.
Modify the smile in Photoshop
Once we have selected the photograph in which we want to modify the smile, we open it in Photoshop and go to the Filters menu. Within this menu we select the Liquify option. A new panel will open, where we have to go to the right, specifically to the Liquify with face detection section. Photoshop recognizes all the faces of the people that appear in the photograph and assigns them a number to be able to individually modify each one of them. Numbering starts from left to right. If only one person appears, we will only be able to work with one face, so it will not be necessary to previously select the face with which we are going to work.
Next, we go to the Face section and move the Smile slider to the left to improve the smile or even add it if it lacks it. If we move the slider to the right, we will obtain the opposite effect. It is not recommended to take this value to 100, since the result can be too exaggerated and very unnatural. As we can see in the following image, we have slightly modified Brad Pitt’s smile so that it does not look so serious.
In addition to modifying the smile, we can also use Photoshop to change the size of the lips, the width and height of the mouth using the Artificial Intelligence of Photoshop. As if that were not enough, this Photoshop algorithm is also capable of adding teeth if we widen the smile more than necessary and the only way to make it natural is to slightly separate the person’s lips.
Modify the size of the eyes and nose
But, not only can we modify our smile in the photographs, but we can also modify the size of the eyes, to make them more or less large, along with height, width and inclination. We also have the possibility of modifying the size of the nose. To modify both the shape and size of the eyes and nose , we must do it from the same panel that allows us to modify the smile. We can independently select the size of the eyes, their separation and the height on the face as well as the size of the nose.
As we can see, it is not necessary to be an expert in Photoshop to slightly modify parts of our face using Artificial Intelligence. Anyone with access to Photoshop can make these and other changes to any photo in seconds.
