If I understand your question correctly then the answer is 80-90 percent things shown in advertisements never happen in real life. Few Examples:  

 

1. Fair and Lovely (Fairness Cream ):  The Claims to get fair complexion in 4 weeks

2. Head n Shoulder or any shampoo for that matter: 98% Dandruff removal.

3. Dettol: 98% germs removal
