Photorealistic age progression and regression services can help identify missing persons by updating the appearance of missing or deceased persons or fugitives. Age-progressed images are also used by law enforcement professionals during wrongful death lawsuits.
Age Progression: Predicting the Effects of Aging
Age progression involves digitally altering a photograph to show how a person might look as they age. Law enforcement professionals frequently use this technique to update the appearance of missing persons whose available photographs are outdated by several years.
Age Regression: Recreating a Younger Appearance
Age regression is the reverse process, where a photograph is modified to depict how an individual might have looked at an earlier stage in their life, often based on the current appearance of the person. Legal professionals use this method to understand a person's appearance at different ages.
Forensic artists at SIFS India employ both traditional illustration techniques and state-of-the-art photo editing software to create powerful, accurate images of individuals. This process not only provides crucial updates on the appearance of missing persons but also offers hope and comfort to their families.
