Working with Real-ESRGAN.
Real-ESRGAN in this catalog is the face-enhancing configuration: it improves facial features and detail while upscaling, which makes it the tool for portraits that arrived soft, small or compressed.
When to choose Real-ESRGAN
Use Real-ESRGAN when faces are the problem. GFPGAN restores overall photo quality including faces, and the Bria and Pruna upscalers are the general-purpose choices for non-portrait images.
