You see it, then you decide.

The restored photo opens over your original, with a line to drag between them. Look at the eyes and the mouth first: if a restored face stops being the same person, it shows there.

Compare the result with your original on the slider.
Upload the photo again for a new version — results differ between runs, within the daily limit.
On a group photo, check every face: likeness holds best on a single face.
