Hello Interloper!

Ash originally claimed she had collagen lip implants to correct her disappearing top lip (an unfortunate but common side-effect of ageing) and maintain her image in the public eye.
Ironically, the treatment had the opposite effect, bringing her notoriety for all the wrong reasons. Back in 2003, the actress typically told the press that her permanently swollen, upwards-curled top lip was a terrible accident and the result of a reaction to the collagen in the implant.
By 2010 she had conceded that it was not an implant at all, but an injection of liquid silicone (the same lethal cocktail responsible for the death of Claudia Aderotimi) which had caused the ridiculous effect.
