Smoothing effect on Mac camera

I recently upgraded my Macbook pro and noticed this camera has better quality. Something else I noticed however is a smoothing filter on every application that uses the camera (Photo Booth, FaceTime, etc.) I want to turn this off and it's ridiculous that this feature is on by default. I prefer to see what I actually look like instead of looking like a 12 year old with a snapchat filter on. PLEASE REMOVE THIS FEATURE!!!

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 13.4
