Which of the following is NOT a result of collagen or fat injections?

  1. Increased Volume

  2. Enhanced Skin Smoothness

  3. Evening out of pigmentation

  4. Reduction of Wrinkles

The correct answer is: Evening out of pigmentation

Collagen and fat injections are primarily aimed at restoring volume to specific areas of the skin and enhancing overall skin texture. These treatments are known to provide results such as increased volume, which helps to plump up areas that have lost elasticity due to aging. Additionally, these injections can enhance skin smoothness by filling in depressions, lines, and wrinkles, leading to a more youthful appearance. While collagen and fat injections can effectively reduce the appearance of wrinkles, they do not address skin pigmentation issues. Evening out pigmentation involves different treatments, such as laser therapy, chemical peels, or topical products designed to target discoloration specifically. Therefore, the option suggesting evening out pigmentation is not a direct result of collagen or fat injections, making it the correct answer in this context.
