Digital Beauty: The good, the bad, and the (not-so) ugly.

Today, digital retouching of your pictures is made possible in the latest smartphones and cameras at the touch of a button. What is more, all of this can be achieved transparently to the user, in real time, just as the image is acquired or added afterwards, allowing users to manipulate and enhance individual faces according to their personal preferences.
