She pointed out how the filter added features such as crown’s feet, forehead wrinkles, thinned lips and Marionette lines, all realistic parts of aging. Joyce Park, a board-certified dermatologist at Skin Refinery, known for her TikTok handle teawithmd, posted a video acclaiming the accuracy of the filter.

Then, take a photo or record a video to see the effect. Search for 'Aged' in the effects tab and select the filter. Snapchat released a similar filter back in 2019, and users similarly used FaceApp to age themselves.Īny TikTok user can access the filter by creating a new video with the plus button in the center of the toolbar at the bottom of the screen. TikTok is not the first app to release an aging filter. The filter looks different for each person and uses AI to enhance existing facial features, like under-eye bags or wrinkles, to estimate how their face will age. The filter, which has over 9 million videos on TikTok, provides a rendering of users' faces with realistic aging, including wrinkles, crow's feet and often gray hair. The new filter uses AI to estimate what your face will look like as you age, and dermatologists on TikTok are calling it “very accurate.” But the response, especially among young people using the filter, reveals a deep fear within Gen Z of getting, and more importantly, looking old. But a viral 'Aged' filter on TikTok is allowing users to look into the face of their future selves.

It sounds like something out of a fairytale. You would be able to see how you might look to your future grandchildren. You could see the wrinkles on your face, how your hair would gray, and how the very shape of your face would change after decades of life. Imagine if you could look into the future and see yourself 50 years from now.
