Can I add freckles to a group photo?

Yes. The tool works on group photos too. You can add freckles to everyone or mention a specific person in the prompt and the AI will target them.

How do I write a prompt?

Keep it simple and descriptive. Something like "add soft natural freckles across the nose and cheeks" works perfectly.

Can I add freckles to my body, not just my face?

Yes. Just describe it in the prompt, mention the area you want and the AI will apply accordingly.

Will the freckles look different each time I generate?

Yes. Each generation is slightly different so if you don't love the first result, just regenerate for a fresh placement.

AI-powered, Hyper-realistic freckles

Most freckle filters online just stamp the same dots on every face. Same overlay, same placement, doesn't matter if you're fair, deep, or anywhere in between. LightX actually reads your skin tone, lighting, and face structure and places each speck where it would naturally sit.

Soft, bold, natural, sun-kissed. You pick your freckles.

The default prompt generates a natural freckle effect but the tool doesn't lock you in. Edit the prompt to retouch freckles. You can go lighter, darker, more scattered, more concentrated, or full makeup-style. The AI adjusts, you download, done. No sliders. No layers. No tutorial required.
