Pixelate faces and sensitive image areas online when you want a stronger privacy treatment than blur. This is useful for screenshots, moderation work, evidence files, public reporting, and any photo where you need to hide identity clearly and quickly. DoctorIMG combines automatic face detection with manual area controls so you can anonymize an image without installing desktop software.
If you searched for pixelate face online, hide identity in photo online, or anonymize image online, this page is built for that kind of intent. Upload one image, detect faces automatically, or draw your own boxes over any sensitive zone, then export a privacy-safe PNG.
Blur works well when you want a softer privacy effect. Pixelation is more obvious, which is often better for public evidence files, moderation screenshots, incident reports, news-style visuals, and any image where you want a clear visual signal that identity has been masked. That is why users often search for pixelate face online instead of blur face online.
This tool supports both automatic face detection and manual pixelation areas. Automatic detection is useful when faces are easy to spot. Manual mode lets you cover plates, badges, labels, screens, or any identifying detail the face detector will not understand.
Upload one image, review the detected areas, adjust pixel size, and export the result. Larger pixel blocks create a stronger privacy effect. If you prefer a softer look, go back to our Blur Face tool. If you want general guidance on picking the right privacy treatment, see Anonymize Image Online.
Is this free?

Can I pixelate something other than a face?

Does this work for screenshots?
Yes. Pixelation is especially useful for screenshots, labels, and moderation workflows.
