Completely removing former toenail polish primarily leads to the vanishing of discoloration that may have occurred due to the pigments and chemicals in the polish. Over time, nail polish can stain the natural nail, causing them to appear yellowish or dull. By thoroughly removing the polish, you restore the nail to its natural state, revealing a cleaner and more uniform nail appearance.

While the other options may seem appealing, they don't accurately reflect the immediate effect of removing nail polish. For instance, while a fresh look can be achieved after applying new polish, the act of removal itself does not directly create that effect. Nail growth is an ongoing process that is influenced by many factors, including health and care practices, not just the removal of polish. Similarly, nail strength is also affected by overall nail care and health rather than just the absence of polish.
