Ageing is an inevitable process conditioned in linearity of time. Face is the mirror of this ageing process. The tools of image enhancement play a significant role through effective filtering techniques. So far, no researchers can find a method to develop image enhancement from difference equations. This research study illustrates a specific technique to remove speckle noise in any digital image using the solutions of difference equations. Here we propose a novel model to remove ageing marks from the face images. We bring out a series of mask from the oscillatory solution of a certain third order difference equation. This, for specific values, helps us to remove noise in a different way. Illustrations through common face outlook and ageing are considered. ER -
