Why we like it

FacePro earns a spot in the aescripts library by folding AI face masking and portrait retouching into a single plugin that runs across both After Effects and Premiere Pro.

What is FacePro?

FacePro is a plugin from vimager that brings AI-powered face masking and retouching to After Effects and Premiere Pro. It targets portrait work, covering blemish removal, smoothing, and more inside both applications.

Version 1.1.0 introduced a set of mask modes—None, AI Mask, Skin Color, and External—giving several ways to isolate a face. The same release also improved the smoothing filter. These build on the initial 1.0.0 release from December 2025.

FacePro is compatible with seven release years of each host: After Effects and Premiere Pro versions 2020 through 2026. Its most recent update landed in February 2026. A demo video is available for a look at the plugin in action, and this catalog lists FacePro as free. Check the developer's page for current licensing details.

Frequently asked questions

Which After Effects and Premiere Pro versions does FacePro support?

FacePro supports After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020, along with Premiere Pro 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020. That covers seven release years of each host, so it fits both current installs and older setups still on earlier versions. If you run one of these releases in either application, FacePro is compatible. For any details beyond this range, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility information.

What mask modes does FacePro include?

FacePro includes four mask modes: None, AI Mask, Skin Color, and External. These were added in version 1.1.0, giving several ways to isolate a face for masking and retouching. The same update also improved the smoothing filter. The initial 1.0.0 release, from December 2025, preceded these additions. For the full list of what each mode does, refer to the developer's page.

Is FacePro free to use?

FacePro is listed as free in this catalog. Licensing terms can change over time, so for the current status and any conditions attached to using FacePro, check the developer's page directly. That's the most reliable source for up-to-date pricing and license details. Since this listing reflects a snapshot rather than a live feed, the developer's page remains the authoritative place to confirm how FacePro is currently distributed and whether any terms apply before you download it.

Is there a demo video for FacePro?

FacePro has a demo video available online. It's a useful starting point if you want a look at the plugin before installing it in After Effects or Premiere Pro. The video is the quickest way to see how the face masking and portrait retouching features behave in practice, rather than reading about them. For further material and documentation, including anything not covered in the demo, the developer's page is the place to look.
