Beauty Filters

Beauty filters are digital enhancements applied to photos and videos using software or apps, primarily to alter a person’s appearance. These filters typically smooth skin, whiten teeth, enlarge eyes, slim faces, and generally enhance perceived attractiveness. Commonly found in apps like Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok, they often utilize artificial intelligence to automatically detect and adjust facial features. The use of beauty filters raises concerns about unrealistic beauty standards and the potential for distorted self-perception.
