An influencer has revealed she had a facelift at just 34 after ‘years of filler abuse’ left her looking unrecognisable.
Ashley Stobart, married to Ed Stobart of the well-known haulage family, spent thousands over the past decade in a bid to enhance her looks.
The blonde beauty from Cheshire admitted to undergoing treatments including botox injections, filler, liposuction, a nose job and even ‘bleph job’ on her eyelids — which removes excess skin or fat.
But in March she opted for a nine-hour long full face, neck and lip lift to ‘squeeze out’ 4cm of filler — reversing the supposed age-defying procedure becoming increasingly popular among younger women — on both sides of her face.
Years of ‘pumping’ filler ‘anywhere’ in her face had left her ‘looking weird’ and not ‘like me anymore’, she told MailOnline.

Now she is urging young women against the cosmetic ‘tweakment’ warning them not to ‘try and fix things by pumping stuff into [their] faces’.
Ashley said: ‘I had my facelift in March this year, which I had done to rectify years of abuse from filler in my early 20s.
‘When I was in my 20s, given I worked in the cosmetic surgery industry for many, many years, the temptation was there.
‘At the end of the day they would say, “we have some filler or Botox left” and I’d be like “yes, put it in”.
‘Then I’d just look weird from it. I’ve had to have a lot of corrective treatments because of that.
‘It’s all about learning especially with filler and Botox. Now I would honestly say to girls please, please, please don’t get filler.
‘Botox, fair enough it’s fine. I still get Botox and a small bit of filler in my lips, but I used to pump anywhere you could with filler.
‘Then I had to rectify all of that, and have it taken out and I had loose skin.
‘Now I have put a lot of work into researching a healthy lifestyle.

The podcast host and entrepreneur whose business Cosmetic Consult Skin launches today, speaks about the procedures on a ‘subscription platform’ given ‘I have a lot of younger followers’
‘It’s all about drinking filtered water, taking probiotics and not trying to fix things by plumping stuff into my face and painting a lot of make-up over it.’
Now she also chooses not to openly discuss her treatments on Instagram with her 75,000 followers, given ‘I have a lot of younger followers’, she told MailOnline.

The mum-of-three added: ‘I am really happy with the results of my facelift. No more filler for me.

But ‘they ended up getting 4cm off each side of my face’, she added.
‘They were squeezing filler out of my face for hours. I just had lost definition in my face.
‘I didn’t look like me anymore because I’d been filled up, put back in.
‘Obviously, I was pregnant a number of times in a short period of time.
‘And when you have got fillers and you’re pregnant, fillers hold on to water.’
She told MailOnline she chose the podcast because it was an opportunity to be ‘really open about everything’ as she ‘gets asked all the time’ about the treatments she’s previously opted for
She told MailOnline she chose the podcast because it was an opportunity to be ‘really open about everything’ as she ‘gets asked all the time’ about the treatments she’s previously opted for.
‘I’m not a performing monkey,’ she added.
‘I don’t want to look like Kim Kardashian, I have just spoken about it. As women, we get shut down and made to feel stupid for wanting these treatments.’
Fillers — typically injections of collagen or hyaluronic acid — are offered in beauty clinics for as little as £75.
They are supposed to add volume or reduce wrinkles, with effects lasting for up to 18 months.
Yet dermatologists have previously told MailOnline that excess facial filler in younger people ‘can often look unnatural’.
Dr Emma Wedgeworth, a consultant dermatologist and spokesman for the British Skin Foundation said: ‘Dermal fillers were originally used to compensate for volume loss in ageing faces.
‘When they are used for augmentation in younger people or to change original features, it can often look unnatural.
‘Our eye interprets this as looking older, in the same way as seeing heavy makeup on young children — it looks slightly inappropriate and out of place.’
She added: ‘It’s as yet unknown whether there are long term effects of having dermal filler from a very young age.
‘However, as fillers become more common in young people, I think we are certainly starting to see a real distortion in the norms of the ideal facial proportion.
‘Dermal fillers are an excellent treatment when used in the right hands, but it’s important they are used with caution.’
Speaking on the So Wrong It’s Right podcast, Ashley also revealed the surgeon who performed her nose job had since been struck off.
She said: ‘On the day of my 18th birthday, I booked in to get my lips done. Back then, no one really did it.
‘The man that did my nose has actually been struck off. A bad nose job can literally ruin your life.
‘What we have to remember with cosmetic surgery is that you’ve already got an issue with yourself because you’re going to get something done. You can’t deny that.
‘So then if you go and get something done and it goes wrong, the repercussions of that are horrible.’
