Portrait detail
4K · SeedVR2

Bring the long edge to 3,840 pixels while keeping your image’s proportions. See the exact dimensions before you begin.
Processing requires purchased credits. No free trials or signup credits.


Sample input is AI-generated; the result was processed by the named FAL model.
The same image, on both sides. Drag the handle to inspect what changed.






Original inputs were created with an image-generation tool, then downsampled into test uploads. Every enhanced image was returned by the named FAL model. These are controlled synthetic examples, not customer photos or guarantees of results.
Two real models. Different strengths, different prices. Compare the same input before you choose.
A lower-cost option for general upscaling. Start here for textures, products and everyday images, then inspect the result.

The 4K setting brings the longest edge to 3,840 pixels without cropping or stretching. A 16:9 landscape becomes 3,840 × 2,160; a 3:2 photo becomes 3,840 × 2,560.
Already at or above that long-edge size? We do not downscale it secretly. Choose a scale factor instead. Very small inputs can exceed the selected model’s scale limit.
Check the displayed output dimensions and credit estimate. A 4K label alone tells you neither how much detail is real nor how much a model call costs.
One credit is $0.01. Your chosen model and output size determine the cost. No subscription, no signup bonus, no hidden “free” trial.
1 credits per output MP
7 credits per output MP
Billed in whole output megapixels, rounded up, with a 1 MP minimum. 2× width and height means 4× the pixels; 4× means 16×.
Failed processing returns your credits. Higher creativity does not cost extra within the same model and output size.

$30.003,000 credits · one-time paymentPurchased credits do not expire. All packs use the same credit value: no bonus-credit dilution. Taxes, if applicable, are calculated at checkout. Checkout opens after payment setup.
No. All new image processing uses purchased credits. You can inspect the already-generated examples without uploading or spending credits.
Their underlying processing costs differ. SeedVR2 is 1 credit and Crystal is 7 credits per output MP here. The displayed quote is calculated from your selected model and resulting pixel dimensions.
For the same image and model, 4× produces four times the output pixels of 2×. Whole-MP billing and the 1 MP minimum can change the ratio for very small images.
No. These Crystal and SeedVR2 endpoints accept an image and numeric controls, not a text Prompt. We only send parameters the selected endpoint supports.
The image is sent to FAL for processing and stored privately by this service. Our uploads expire after 7 days and outputs after 30 days. FAL has its own processing and retention policies; read the privacy notice before uploading sensitive images.
Not necessarily. AI can reconstruct plausible detail, including incorrect detail. Use the comparison to inspect faces, text and repeating patterns; the output is not documentary proof.
