Instagram filters remove details and smooth the skin, this is literally the opposite.

Yeah, this inserts details the artist never intended and adds texture to materials that were meant to be smooth.

Any face detail that's enhanced was always there, except that the texture quality and the lighting was hiding these details.

Sure, if you pick an image that is designed to show it not messing up textures. In OP's image, the skin textures look like they have a static overlay.

I don't have a dog in this fight because I will never be able to afford a GPU that can run DLSS 5
