We face the two ultra-thin mobile phones of the moment in one of the duels of the year

by

There were those who, with the Galaxy S25 Edge in the window, decided to wait in case Apple was betting on an ultra-thin iPhone. That bet is already here with the iPhone Airand the duel that many had in mind has become inevitable. We talk about two paths to the same thingthinness, designed for users who value form as much as experience. The question is raised from the first minute: which proposal best suits you if what you prioritize is a very thin mobile phone? We return to the format 24/7the Xataka space in which each round counts and only one can take the final score. On this occasion, it is Samuel Oliver who pone face to face on video the two ultra-thin proposals of the moment, comparing screen, performance, cameras and battery. We have already experienced crashes here before like the iPhone 17, Garmin, Huawei and Amazfit watches or the duel between the AirPods Max and the Sony WH1000XM6. Today, the challenge enters a new terrain. Two motives, the same purpose: conquer the terrain of thinness The confrontation begins where everyone looks first: the design. Samuel Oliver makes it clear from the beginning: “The first thing that catches the eye is the design. And although, as always, it is a section that does not score, it is impossible not to mention the two authentic gems that both brands have made.” The video shows how Apple and Samsung interpret thinness from very different angles, and what sensations they transmit when holding them in your hand. The screens mark the first major technical clash of the versus. “The iPhone always tends towards more neutral and consistent colors, while Samsung has that visual punch from the factory, but which we can always configure to taste,” says Samuel Oliver while showing both panels side by side. Two philosophies that change the way we enjoy content. The power round is not decided by numbers, but by experience. “The best thing of all is that none of them get too hot when you give them stressful tasks“says our colleague after subjecting the two phones to a session of intense use. In the video he shows how they perform and to what extent they manage to keep the temperature under control. “Best of all, none of them get overheated when you give them stressful tasks.” The photographic section comes with a surprise. “One of the things that made me raise an eyebrow when I saw the presentation of the iPhone Air was its camera module with a single sensor in 2025. We are crazy, but it is the bet that Apple has decided to make and it doesn’t turn out completely wrong,” he comments. In the video he compares how each phone resolves scenes in good light and to what extent the contrast of its sensors makes a difference. If we focus on the round dedicated to autonomy we find that both have had to make sacrifices. “I’m surprised that an iPhone has greater fast charging than that of a Samsung,” admits Samuel before showing his evidence. The big question is which of the two terminals will have won the point. The price puts the last test on the table. Both phones cost around 1,200 euros, a high figure if the sacrifices in camera and autonomy are taken into account. In this part, Samuel lets experience speak: how each mobile phone feels on a day-to-day basis and to what extent they manage to convince when cost enters the equation. The duel between the iPhone Air and the Galaxy S25 Edge has left precise blows, risky decisions and more of a surprise. But the final verdict, as always, it’s in the video. There the nuances, the tests and the outcome of this ultra-thin combat are revealed. You can see it now on the Xataka YouTube channel.

Sam Altman spent 6,500 million to create a Gadget from AI next to Jony Ive. Now they face a problem

by

In September 2023, Sam Altman, CEO of Openai and Jony Ive, former chief chief in Apple, gathered to devise a revolutionary device they called “the iPhone of the AI”. They were serious because this year Openai bought the Startup of IVE for a whopping 6,500 million dollars. A halo of smoke Mystery has surrounded this collaboration since it was announced and now that new news arrives is because the project has problems, some more serious than others. The “problems.” They tell it in Financial Times. Openai wants to launch its mysterious Gadget Superventas next year. However, sources close to the company ensure that the project has encountered critical problems that could delay its arrival. The team is having difficulties when deciding the personality that the wizard will have, something crucial for a device designed to always be on. There are also doubts about whether to do it as the classic assistants that are only activated when we invoke them or allow it to act by yourself when you consider it useful. The big problem. Assuming that Altman is right and his gadget becomes a global success, the most serious problem they face is that OpenAi does not have the necessary computing power to operate its models on a massive use device, and that costs money (something that OpenAi is not left over precisely). In the case of Alexa or the Google, Amazon and Google assistant they have plenty of computing to make them work without depending on anyone else. OpenAi has chatgpt, The most popular chatbot in the worldand need to work with external investments. First it was his Alliance with Microsoftafter SoftBank’s investment, according to Nvidia And the newly announced according to AMD. If the gadget they want to launch ends up being massive as Altman wants, the numbers do not come out. The device. We do not know what you will call or what design will you have. The details that Altman and Ive gave in their day were quite lazyIn fact, they focused more on saying what it will not be than what will be. It will be similar to the mobile, but it will not be a mobile. Nor will it have a screen, but we will communicate with him through cameras, microphones and speakers. And they will not be glasses either. Nothing concrete, but for the moment it reminds a lot of Ai pin of Humane, that He failed loudly. OpenAi goes for hardware. OpenAI enters $ 1,000 million per monthbut the speed to which money burns is much higher than the one that enters it and would need to enter ten times more to be profitable. Even so, the company is already valued in half a billion dollars. Entry into the hardware business makes sense as a way of justifying its value. Beyond the doubts that arise around this mysterious device (They are many), Openai is very serious about creating a hardware division. When buying the IVE startup, they added 20 employees and later They hired several Apple experts and also of the finish team in charge of the target Quest and smart glasses. We will have to keep waiting to see if it ends up materializing in In Xataka | Data centers for AI are an energy hole. Jeff Bezos’s solution: Build them in space

What few have when two audio giants face

by

In a corner, the metallic brightness and the promise of total integration. In the other, the very discreet portability and obsession with cancellation and autonomy. Airpods Max and Sony Wh1000XM6 They go up to the quadrilateral with very different arguments To conquer the user. The question is direct: do you prefer the path of Design and Apple’s ecosystem or the customization and control that Sony offers? Among the versus everything works by rounds: they face face to face and each section adds or subtracts until only one winner remains. In this ring andA have passed the iPhone 17, Garmin, Huawei and Amazfit clocks, And even Amazon’s best selling fryers. Today, the baton is in the hands of Samuel Oliverthat distributes the points until you reach the final verdict. The rounds that decide this versus The first thing that makes our partner clear is that the design does not count on the scoreboard: “Design is very subjective Some are going to like that of the Airpods and other Sony. ”That said, Oliver enters the materials and portability.“ Inevitably the Airpods Max take this section ” Samuel Oliver does not go with Rodeos when talking about the sound and highlights the high sound quality that the Apple device offers from the first moment. But not everything is said. From there, the comparison focuses on how the experience changes in the face of Sony’s warmer and customizable proposal, a contrast that deserves to be heard in the video. The Noise cancellation It is one of the key sections in this comparison. Sony has been polishing generation after generation its algorithm and microphone management, while Apple bets on huge earmuffs that help achieve remarkable isolation. In the midst of that technical and design battle, a track falls into the video: “But here the balance bows when we test the global suppression and adaptation it has to all kinds of noise.” In functionality, Apple and Sony move in very different worlds. The Max Airpods stand out for their immediate integration into the brand’s ecosystem, with automatic pairing and very careful physical controls. Sony, on the other hand, is committed to maximum customization through its application, with equalizer, cancellation modes and multipoint connection. The autonomy test is what ends up tilting the balance in this comparison. Our partner tells in the video how each proposal translates on a day -to -day basis, with fast charges and surprises in prolonged use. What does not change is his warning: “There is nothing worse, but nothing worse than getting out of home, also in a hurry, put on the helmets, whatever they are and have no battery.” After measuring sound, cancellation or autonomy, there is a land that is usually decisive: the price. It is not the same to bet on a premium design than to look for the most versatile and easy to find option. Samuel Oliver talks about the winner and explains that “it is a very difficult proposal to ignore, especially if we compare its price.” If you want to know how each round is resolved and what is the outcome of this fight, The answer is in the full video. There are the differences with practical tests, real -use examples and nuances that are only seen seeing the helmets in action.

Yesterday in the return and in Madrid it exploded in the face

by

The return 2025 will not be the Jonas Vingegaard nor that of any of the other cyclists and teams that have spent weeks pedaling through the ports of Spain. The 2025 return is and will be for the story ‘The return of the proportions’the same as They marked their stages In Basque Country or Galicia and what They have frustrated His grand final in Madrid. The return of 2025 will also be something else: the competition that shows us that the financed/sponsored teams aligned with states marked in one way or another by the controversy, such as EAU, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia (or in this case Israel) can become watchmaking pumps. And that is something that transcends Spain. What happened? We said it before: that very much that of 2025 will not be the return of Vingegaardnot that of his team, Visma Lease-A-Bike. The prominence has been monopolized by another group for reasons that have little to do with sport: Israel-Primer Tech (ITP)an UCI Pro Team qualification with Headquarters in Tel Aviv And in the hands of Sylvan Adamsan entrepreneur who It has not hidden His good harmony with Benjamin Netantayahu. Itp’s role as Israel representative in the middle of Gaza’s genocide has caused a deep discomfort in part of Spanish society, which has marked several stages of the cycling return with footprint protests. Has it so serious? Yes. We saw it Two weeks ago In Bilbao, where the protesters left moments of tension and forced those responsible for the return to end the stage Three kilometers Before the goal. It happened again in Galicia, where cyclists found even A tree crossed on the road. And he repeated himself yesterday on the final day, in Madrid. Not even the huge Police deploymentwith hundreds of police, he prevented the one who should be the golden clasp of the competition Be ruined: The stage ended earlier than expected, without podium. In between about twenty stages marked by the controversy and an increasing tension that even led the technical director of the competition, Kiko García, to slide that he only saw “a solution” to the problem: that IPT itself understood that its presence between the squad compromised the test. Little served. Nor that neither Threats of the cyclists to stand up to the Tel Aviv team, which only lent themselves to Delete the mention To your country in the jersey. Why is it important? Beyond what he has implied for the 2025 Vuelta, one of the great appointments of international cycling, what happened on the roads of Spain reveals some things about cycling and of course the future of Israel First-Tech. His odyssey in the Iberian competition may have finished, but in Quebec he has already encountered similar protests of annoying activists for their participation in the city grand prize. At the moment IPT He has resigned to take a measure similar to the one he adopted in Spain and retouch his name. The objective is to save episodes such as those lived in recent weeks in Spain, very difficult to avoid in great tests such as the return. Cycling has a world audience that follows its evidence through traditional networks, websites and media, as well as basketball or tennis, but unlike those sports, their competitors beat copper in kilometric stages, impossible to control one hundred percent, as well as well Madrid has proven. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Is it the only problem? No. What happened in Spain reminds us of something else: the ‘watchmaking pump’ that the equipment that in one way or another is linked to controversial states, either through sponsorship or financing or (IPT case) for its clear alignment with their governments. An especially serious problem when we talk about cyclist tournaments in which, as we pointed out before, it is almost impossible to have total control over the layout and prevent protests. It is not something exclusive to the Vuelta, nor from Israel-Primer Tech and the state of Israel. United Arab Emirates is represented, for example, the UAE Team Emirates XRGa professional team of the UCI WTORLDTEAM category that assures which aims to “represent the entire nation.” In front it has Kill Suhail Al Yabhouni, trusted man of the heir prince of Abu Dhabi, and among his sponsors includes key signatures of the country, such as Emirates, FAB either Ich. The Australian team Jayco Alula (UCI Worldteam) also counts among its main sponsors to Al-ulain Saudi Arabia. And something simulate occurs in Baréin, represented in professional cycling by TEAM BAHRAIN VICTORIOUSwhich as they recognize have “A strong connection” With the kingdom, a link “represented by the proud support of the Bahréin Economic Development Board, Bapco, Batelco, the Bahréin National Bank, to Salam Bank and Alba, among others.” And the case of Israel Tech-Premier? IPT is marked by its link with Israel and the tune of one of its maximum responsible with Netanyahu. That has weighed in his participation in the return and promises to do it in Other competitions. In his Official website The team does not cite the Hebrew State as a direct financier and Its origins (11 years ago, like Israel Cycling Academy) They were marked by the involvement of businessman Ron Baron and the former Ran Margaliot. However, the team has been positioning itself as an informal representative of the country worldwide. In fact claims that “he sees himself as an ambassador.” Since 2022 its main sponsor is the Canadian company Premier Tech and the main figure at the head of the team is Sylvan Adamsa millionaire with A key weight in the World Jewish Congress to whom It is attributed A narrow friendship with Netanyahu and the Sportwashingimage washing through sport. “In physical war we have done miracles with things that seem science fiction, but in the war of communications we are failing miserable,” I lamented recently Adams in JNS. “The situation is getting worse and worse for us and this manifests itself in the terrible anti -Semitism in the world. … Read more

How to create a chibi -style manga character based on your face using artificial intelligence, in chatgpt and gemini

by

Let’s explain how to create A chibi character using your face as references using the artificial intelligence. It is called chibi in the style inside the manga in which the characters are small, big heads and very adorable, a very particular style. We are going to tell you a prompt that you can do, and we are going to teach you the result with Chatgpt and Gemini. The prompt will also help you for other AI Where you can create images using a reference photo. You just have to keep in mind that Each AI will have its own style When drawing this character, and that you can redo the result if you want to try again. Create a Chibi doll with your factions To create a chibi with your face you can do two things. Can Use a photo of yours as a reference Or simply describe your appearance, with the beautiful facial or the style of hair or eye color. If you use a photo all this data will be extracted from it, but the Chibi are never usually excessively realistic, so it is not so important. Therefore, what you should do is upload your photo to the artificial intelligence chat you have chosen, and then Write a prompt with the petition to create the doll. We have used this Prompt: “Create a chibi manga -style doll, similar to the reference image, with the person’s factions in attached photography. The doll must have a black shirt and jeans, blacks, with black shoes. The background must be that of a concert, and the doll is jumping by making the gesture of the heavy metal horns with the hand. The expression of the doll must be of joy.” Here, in the prompt you must mention that you want the image factions. You can also Describe the clothes you want to wear In the event that the photo does not look good. In addition, you can describe a gesture you want to be doing, and whatever you want to appear at the bottom of the image. Another thing to keep in mind is that you can specify the expression you want your drawing, as an expression of joy. Besides, You can add other things to the prompt such as the size or proportion of the image, or any other detail you want to add. Result with Gemini The result with Gemini It is quite good, although sometimes you may need to rebuild it a couple of times until you find something better. The style is not exactly the chibi that you can recognize in any manga, but it is quite approaching. The good thing is that Gemini will get more information about your photoas details of the clothes you wear even if you do not ask for them. Result with chatgpt The result with chatgpt is the bestand the style is much more cuqui and childish. You may not get so many details of the original photo, but it is possibly what you have in your head when you try to make one of these dolls. Result with Grok In both cases we have used the same promptalthough you can try to make some changes in the way of expressing yourself. You can use this prompt in other AI, such as Grok either Perplexity. The first one approaches Gemini, Per Ose is behind in terms of the execution of the gesture you ask for, and the second allows you to use third -party models.

‘La Revuelta’ and ‘El Hormiguero’ do not face a war of audiences, but politics lies, and yesterday we saw the first exhibition

by

As they say in the series: “In the last season of ‘La Revuelta’ vs. ‘El Hormiguero’ …”. And the last thing that happened is that after the Zambombazo de las Campanadas With Broncano and Lalachus in La1, The audiences were retreating timidly and ended with a clear victory of ‘El Hormiguero‘. Not sweeping, but winning consistently every night. Does that want to say that this season the waters are going to calm down and ‘La Revuelta’ will admit his quiet defeat, letting motorcycles reign? Not remotely … The audiences. After sweeping Monday with football, on Tuesday 9 she marked the return of ‘La Revuelta’, after a week in which Motos already had her new season at solo. Broncano stayed on Tuesday only a few tenths of his competitor (16.4% compared to 16.8%). Last night the distance increased, getting closer to what we saw in spring (16.5% of ‘El Hormiguero’ against 15.1% of ‘La Revuelta’). They are figures that give us an overview, but not detailed of what happened yesterday, since among other things and how we have spoken other times, Broncano does not announce your guestswith what does not depend on their potential to propel their figures. What happened yesterday was a especially tense night, with two unusually politicized and strident guests. Mariló Montero against Broncano. Invite Montero to the set of ‘La Revuelta’ It seemed a counterfit idea, although there was an excuse: he is a contestant of the new edition of ‘Master Chef’, but a good part of his career has passed as a combative conservative speaker in large audience programs as ‘Public mirror’ or in La1 itself, whose morning magazine presented between 2009 and 2016. The interview with Broncano was so tense that, for the first time, the guest did not sit to sit. They were discussed, from absolutely contrary positions, issues such as bullfighting (Defender one, Antitaurino the other) or freedom of expression (the famous and so relative “nothing can be said” that so often comes up in ‘El Hormiguero’). The interview was embedded in a tense atmosphere and between accusations not veiled that Broncano had been finger by the government to propaganda. Montero, however, was in a hostile environment: it was booed and its arguments were dismantled almost without opposition. Broncano preached for converts and the program served to strengthen his audience and positions. Nacho Cano and Motos. For its part, ‘El Hormiguero’ He invited a lavish Nacho Cano to his setwho sowed his appearance of shocking statements: he assured that he lives with fear and that he keeps money so that, in case of being killed, “those who do it, pay it.” He said that “I fear that they hit me” three days after denouncing by prevarication (For the third time) To the judge who brought the Malinche case, already filed. He aited the government of being a criminal gang, told the Police as part of the conspiracy and said that only the Civil Guard can save us from this union. Leaving aside the crazy accusations of canoe, the truth is that his words were dyed of a fury somewhat out of control and clearly politicized. And that, on the one hand they contrasted with that idea that “nothing can be said” and, on the other hand, that only the1 is politicized. Hostilities are intensified. The impression that leaves us on the tense night of Wednesday 9 is that both programs have drawn the heavy weapons to combat their rival from the beginning. Motos has taken three conservative icons this week such as Bertín Osborne, Arturo Pérez-Reverte and Nacho Cano, and Broncan Ampendera on the left. The numbers no longer. Perhaps because they know that if the PSOE government ends ‘the revolt’ it can have the days counted (it does not matter or not: that is the vision of the program), and perhaps the fight for audiences, Broncano and theirs may have chosen to intensify the fight in the political mud. Bringing Montero to ridicule it is not exactly the most elegant of the movements, but the presence of Nacho Cano in ‘El Hormiguero’ was able to be squeaky even for the regular motorcycles, given the extravagance (and radicality) of the guest. If this has done nothing but start, we will be entertaining this course.

We face two of Amazon’s best selling fryers and the result is not as evident as it seems

by

The air fryers They have ceased to be a passenger fashion to become a key appliance in many kitchens. His promise to cook with less oil, faster and without sacrificing flavor has made more and more people consider incorporating them into their day to day. But among so many models, prices and characteristics, making a decision can be complicated. Therefore, the big question is clear: what is the best option? After several weeks, one of our favorite formats returns of the Xataka YouTube channel: The versus. In this series we face two face -to -face devices to analyze every detail and decide which one deserves the most. This time we put on the table two very popular air fryers: the Cosori Premium Chef Edition and the Cecotec Cecofry Full Inox Pro 5500. We have tested them thoroughly with the aim of finding the one that best suits the daily use and any kitchen. A mission: find the best fryer Ana Boria has spent several days cooking with the two fryers in her daily routine, trying Equal recipes in both devices and evaluating your performance in real conditions. To leave it in his initial words: “I have here the two best -selling air fryers of Amazon for years and I have decided to try them and face them face to see which of the two is the best purchase option,” he says. Design is the first point that marks differences. Our partner summarized it like this: “The first thing that caught my attention when taking them out of the box is that the Cecotec is much lighter than the Cosori and is not only because it is smaller, but because of construction materials, since it has worse quality plastics.” That initial feeling could anticipate part of the verdict, but let’s not be fooled, that there are surprises. The experience of use goes through the interface and cleaning, two key points when it is cooked daily. “The button is quite similar in bothwith the icons backlighted behind the touch plastic panel. The good thing about this type of botone is that we prevent the buttons from erasing over time, ”says our partner. What system will the usability and maintenance easier? The performance, on the other hand, is measured in speed and cooking uniformity, two key aspects when using a daily fryer. “During all these days with the two fryers I have tried to cook different dishes and there has been one thing that has caught my attention. The Cosori takes much less to cook,” Ana explains. The difference in time is especially noticeable in crispy recipes, but the question is which achieves the best balance between speed and results. During all these days with the two fryers I have tried to cook different dishes and there has been one thing that has caught my attention. The Cosori takes much less to cook. For many users, noise and consumption are decisive when choosing an appliance. In our tests we find Clear differences in the sound generated by each modeland to verify it we turn to precise measurements with a soundometer. These data reveal that, beyond cooking performance, there are practical aspects such as acoustic comfort that incline the balance. Not everything is power. The real price of a fryer is not measured only by the device: official accessories can make a difference. “For 57 euros we have a very complete fryer, with good power and good capacity,” says Ana about the Cecotec, while Cosori costs more even without extras. In this section, each brand plays its letters differently, and understanding that balance between value and cost helps to make a more accurate decision. The comparison leaves a clear winner, but the differences between the two models deserve to be seen in detail. Each round provides nuances that go beyond the numbers and help to understand what is the best option for each type of user. If you want to know how each fryer behaves in real stages and discover the final verdict, you can do it In the new versus on the YouTube channel of Xataka.

Now face a murky future

by

During the last decade, building wind turbines in the sea was glimpsed as a decisive change for the energy transition in Europe. In the middle of the sea, where the wind blows more strongly and constancy, the promise was to guarantee more clean and competitive large -scale electricity. However, that hope is getting rid under a storm of uncertainty. The crisis in the old continent. The great European bet for marine wind has encountered an uncomfortable reality: the auctions begin to get empty. In Germany, two areas of the North Sea with 2.5 GW capacity They did not arouse interest. Denmark offered 3 GW And neither were there biders. And in the United Kingdom, the fifth round of contracts per difference (CFD) failed because the maximum price set did not cover construction costs In a context of inflation. From Windeurope, The European wind employer cited by the SpanishThey have warned that marine wind remains cheaper than new coal or nuclear plants, but they have denounced that regulatory insecurity and current auction design are suffocating the investment appetite. As a possible solution, the organization claims to extend contracts by bilateral difference, which would give income stability and reduce financing. A common factor: Trump. On the other side of the puddle, the setbacks have their own name: Donald Trump. According to an extensive report by The New York Timesthe Republican Administration has paralyzed three wind projects already approved by the previous government: Revolution Wind in Rhode Island, Empire Wind in New York and Lava Ridge in Idaho. Official justifications allude to vague concerns of “national security”, but legal experts point out that the foundation is “surprisingly weak” and that there are no precedents to stop works with federal permits in order. Immediate consequences. As The Guardian has detailedthe Ørsted shares, the largest European wind company, fell 17% in a single day after the suspension of Revolution Wind, a project already completed by 80%. Analysts described the measure of “political hostage” and recalled that Trump’s animosity towards wind energy dates back more than a decade, when he tried to stop visible turbines from one of his golf courses in Scotland. The coup has forced Ørsted to announce a capital extension of 9.4 billion dollars, almost as much as its stock capitalization, According to Financial Times. Political voices in Denmark have even asked that the company reduces its exposure to the United States, where it also maintains development projects. Reality in front of rhetoric. Meanwhile, the US president intensifies his rhetoric criticizing wind infrastructure on his trips to Europe, According to Euronews. However, the media confronts those statements with data from the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena): Earth’s wind is the cheapest source of electricity generation, with a useful life of 20 to 25 years, and up to 95% of its materials are recyclable. The Chinese mirror. In parallel, the best example of what could be the transition is China. The country It has become the first “electrostate” of the world after a decade of strategic planning. It already generates more than a quarter of its electricity with renewables and exports large -scale clean technology, displacing Europe in a field where it was supposed to lead. The consequences for the future. The result is, As Spanish has summarizeda western crisis rather than global. While Beijing dominates the supply chain and exports renewable technology at competitive prices, the United States and Europe are trapped in unattractive political battles and regulatory frameworks. The effect is double: project financing is more expensive and investors confidence is eroded. According to NYTeven if companies manage to reverse blockages in court, delays increase costs and sow doubts that can stop new investments. Staying behind. Beyond the political pulse, the crisis reflects a geopolitical change. How my partner has pointed out in Xatakawe are entering the era of “electrostatics”: countries that build their power not over oil, but about renewable capacity gigawats and the control of critical supply chains. China already occupies that role, while Europe, despite its climatic ambitions, runs the risk of staying halfway. Marina’s wind promised to be the jewel of the crown in the Western energy transition. Today, however, its future is marked by political blockages, investment insecurity and deserted auctions. While Europe doubts and the United States slows approved projects, China accelerates and consolidates its leadership.

star surgeons, 100,000 euros and rebuild your face without noticing

by

The premiere of the new film Put in my place again Not only has the nostalgia of those who grew up with the original comedy aroused. He has also brought with him a radical change in its protagonist: Lindsay Lohanwhich surprised with a bright, defined and rejuvenated appearance. In parallel, the matriarch of the Kardashian, Kris Jenner, revolutionized social networks By showing a smooth and tuned face that made it look for several decades younger, despite being about to turn 70. In the case of Jenner, the answer is surgical and has its own name: Steven Levine, one of the most prestigious surgeons in New York, specialized in deep flat lifting. Lohan, on the other hand, attributes his Glow up to a healthy diet, laser treatments and skin care routines. Two different paths to the same promise: eternal youth. The “Invisible Effect” surgery What in the eighties meant tense faces and artificial features, today is synonymous with undetectable results. The star technique is deep -plane lifting, which works in the superficial musculosurotic musculosurotic system layer (SMAs) and repositions block muscles and ligaments. Thus, the dreaded “wind tunnel effect” is avoided and a more natural and durable rejuvenation is achieved. In an extensive report for the Financial Times They have explained That the procedure can last between 10 and 15 years, and is usually combined with blepharoplasties, fat transfers, eyebrow and laser lifting such as fractional CO2 or Morpheus8. The trend is clear: that the scalpel is not noticed. The designer Marc Jacobs Publicly documented his surgery on Instagrambreaking with the secretism of the past. Today, the real luxury is that no one can guess what you have done. The eternal surgical youth is priced, and is not available to everyone. In Cosmopolitan magazine They have specified That a classic stretch can cost between 4,000 and 10,000 euros in Europe, while a deep lifting in New York starts at $ 45,000. Nevertheless, According to Financial Timesamong the most renowned celebrities, prices exceed six figures. So more than aesthetics, we are facing a status paradigm. As the psychotherapist Paul Hokemeyer has pointed out in The British environment: “Impeccable surgery is a status symbol that exceeds any birkin bag.” Having access to Levine or other star doctors implies belonging to the elite circle that “knows” and can pay. In fact, Wendy Lewis, consultant to the beauty industry, has warned that many patients assume that the more expensive, the better, although the reality is that it also works as a social brand: paying more means exhibiting it as a gesture of distinction. In this same line, New York Post has detailed The rise of “quiet luxury” procedures: discreet buttocks (“Midwest Bbl”), natural dental veneers or sinuses. It is the countercara of what the Kardashian did at the time: the aspirational is no longer the exaggerated volume, but the undetectable, which seems “natural” but costs six figures. Although surgery is not available to everyone, aspiration filters down. The same thing happened with Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs: at first restricted to Hollywood, expensive and difficult to get, turned into a luxury symbol rather than in medical treatment. Over time they popularized, but maintain their aspirational aura: extreme thinness as a class trophy. Those who cannot afford Liftings then resort to more affordable, although harmful alternatives. In Tiktok, hashtags like #skinnytok They accumulate thousands of videos in which adolescents share extreme diets, excessive exercise routines and phrases of “thinspiration”. As We have detailed in Xatakajust eight minutes of exposure to this type of content are enough to increase anxiety and body dissatisfaction. The supposed “average complexion” – nor fat or skinny – also circulates as a new restrictive ideal, disguised as inclusiveness.
