About This Script

Applies professional-grade skin retouching using the frequency separation technique — completely non-destructively. The script creates two layers: a low-frequency layer for color and tone, and a high-frequency layer for texture and detail. It applies Gaussian blur to the low-frequency layer at a configurable radius for skin smoothing while preserving pores and fine detail on the high-frequency layer. Includes an optional skin mask based on color range selection. Results look natural, not plastic. Perfect for portrait photographers who need consistent retouching across multiple images.
