ERAS Headshot Retouching Before & After Examples

Professional medical residency headshot retouching helps you look your best without changing who you are. Below are real before-and-after examples showing the subtle editing included with every ERAS headshot session.

Every ERAS headshot includes natural professional retouching such as:

✅ Reduce temporary skin blemishes

✅ Reduce shine and hot spots

✅ Soften distracting skin texture

✅ Tidy flyaway hairs

✅ Brighten tired eyes

✅ Maintain natural skin tone

✅ Preserve your facial features

The examples below show subtle, natural editing. The goal is to help you look polished and professional—not different from how you’ll appear during residency interviews.

What We Don’t Retouch

ERAS photographs should accurately represent you. I never alter facial structure, change body shape, remove permanent identifying features, or create an unrealistic appearance. Every edit is designed to help you look rested, confident, and professional while remaining completely natural.
