# Model Face Swap

> Swap the face on an existing on-model image for a different one, without reshooting the pose or scene.

Model Face Swap replaces the face on an existing on-model image with a different one, while everything else in the frame stays put.

## What it does

This template takes an on-model photo you already have — the pose, outfit, and scene are already right — and swaps in a different face from the model library. Nothing else in the image changes. Use it when the composition is done and you only need to change who's wearing it, instead of generating an entirely new shot.

<Note>
  Swap **replaces** a face on an image you already have. If you don't yet have an on-model frame to start from, use [Model Face Generation](/templates/model-face-generation) instead.
</Note>

## Inputs

<Columns cols={2}>
  <Column>
    **Product image** (required) The existing on-model photo whose face you want to replace. See [Product Images](/input-uploads) for prep guidelines.
  </Column>

  <Column>
    **Model selection** (required) Choose the replacement face by filtering gender, ethnicity, or body part. Browse the library at [Model Faces](/model-faces).
  </Column>
</Columns>

<Note>
  The AI replaces the face while preserving the rest of the frame — it can't fix a pose or crop issue elsewhere in the source photo. Start from a clean on-model shot for the best result.
</Note>

## How to use it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Model Face Swap in Studio">
    From [Studio](/studio), select the Model Face Swap template.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload your on-model image and choose a face">
    Add the existing photo, then filter the model library by gender, ethnicity, or body part to pick the replacement face.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set resolution and variations">
    Choose 1K for a quick test, or 2K/4K for final output. Pick how many variations to generate — more variations and higher resolution use more credits. See [Credits](/credits).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate">
    Results save automatically to your Library, ready to download as JPG, PNG, or WebP.
  </Step>

## Tips

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Start from a clean, sharp on-model source">
    The swap works best when the original face is clearly visible, well-lit, and not turned at an extreme angle — that gives the AI a clean area to replace.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Use the same face across every image in a collection">
    If you're standardizing a whole drop on one face, swap that same model into every existing on-model shot for a consistent campaign look.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Test at 1K before committing to the full batch">
    If you're swapping the same face across many images, confirm the match looks right on one image at 1K before running the rest at 2K or 4K.
  </Accordion>
