The disclosure provides an image processing device. An image processing device includes a neural network circuit, a gain control circuit, and an image merge circuit. The neural network circuit is configured to receive an input image, and perform an image processing operation on the input image according to fixed parameters to output a first intermediate image. The gain control circuit, coupled to the neural network circuit, is configured to receive the first intermediate image from the neural network circuit, and multiply the first intermediate image by at least one amplitude gain to output a second intermediate image. The image merge circuit, coupled to the gain control circuit, configured to receive the second intermediate image and the input image, and combine the second intermediate image and the input image to obtain an output image. In addition, a method for image enhancement is also provided.
