1. A computer-implemented method of processing an input digital image, the method comprising:
- forming a representation of the input digital image as wavelet components; and
for each of a plurality of facial regions in the input digital image;
forming a reconstructed facial region based on a subset of the wavelet components, the subset of the wavelet components for the facial region differing from a subset of the wavelet components for at least one other facial region of the plurality of facial regions; and
identifying pixels associated with facial wrinkles in the facial region as pixels in the reconstructed facial region that differ from corresponding pixels in the facial region by a first threshold amount.
