4D HIFU - High Intensity Focused Ultrasound

4D High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (4D HIFU) treatment has become one of the most sought-after lifting treatments for face, neck and body without going under the knife. Just one session can tighten and lift the skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve skin tone, providing visible results that will last up to 3 years. 4D HIFU treatment has proven effective on the face, sagging jowls, chins and much more. Treatment time takes between 1–3 hours depending on the area we are treating. Plus, with no downtime, you can be back to your usual routine immediately after.

At Ashton's Aesthetics, we offer the unique 4D HIFU facial and full body treatments. With 4D HIFU the results are 87% more effective and has a 97% client satisfaction rate. 4D HIFU treatments have their own serial number to track each client's results. They fire 850,000 more dots into the treatment area, resulting in improved results and increased efficiency. This uses ultrasound energy that helps encourage the production of collagen, which then leads to tighter, firmer skin. The high-frequency beams used by HIFU treatment allows it to focus below the skin’s surface, avoiding damage to the upper layers. Unlike surgical facelifts, 4D HIFU has no scarring, incisions and requires no recovery time.

4D HIFU treatment can potentially give the same results as a surgical facelift, but without cutting and disrupting your skin’s surface. A number of problem areas can be treated with 4D HIFU therapy, such as the chin, jawline, eyelids, neck and other facial regions that are wrinkling or sagging.

Similar to radiofrequency treatments like Thermage, the energy delivered to the deep layers of skin stimulate collagen and elastin production.

Ashton's Aesthetic Clinic offers 4D HIFU, one of the most effective HIFU treatments currently available. 4D HIFU provides an effective and quick treatment for reducing the signs of skin ageing and restoring that youthful glow. The 4D HIFU device targets the dermis and superficial muscular aponeurotic system (SMAS) to trigger collagen production.

The common fine lines and wrinkles it can effectively treat are the smile lines, frown lines, forehead wrinkles and crow's feet. It can also be used on body areas and cheek fat, double chin and brow line for an added skin lift and contour.

Benefits of 4D HIFU Facelift and Body Treatments

Ageing skin is something we can never avoid. As we age, the dermis, which is the structural foundation of our skin is lost. 4D HIFU Facelift Treatment is an effective procedure that helps reduce the signs of ageing and helps boost collagen and elastin production.

Fine lines and wrinkles are drastically reduced after a few treatments of 4D HIFU Facelift. You will find yourself with firmer and youthful skin.

Derma Pen Microneedling And Mesotherapy

As we age, we lose collagen in the skin due to external factors such as sun exposure, smoking, skin care regime and internal factors such as genetics. As our body ages, our ability to replenish our collagen level reduces and the skin starts to look saggy, lax and wrinkled. To prevent this and replenish the collagen that has been lost, inducing the over production of collagen helps skin to become more youthful, plump and radiant. This is where microneedling plays a part!

Microneedling is the process of pricking the skin with thousands of microneedles which can range from 0.5mm to 2mm that create small micro-channels in the skin. To achieve this, a small head containing around 12 of the microneedles is attached to a hand-held device which 'stamps' the needles at a fast rate over the skin. The trauma created by the formation of the micro-channels stimulates collagen and fibroblasts to repair the mini traumas and in turn, the new skin formed underneath has excess collagen and a more unified structure. Therefore, the skin appears plump and youthful as it has the support underneath to bounce back.

The micro-channels also allow a gateway for product to be delivered to the deeper layers of the skin as they increase absorption of topical products by 1000 times. At Ashton's Aesthetics, 2ml of serum, personalised to your individual requirements, is applied to the skin. This is then 'stamped' over again with the microneedling device to deliver the ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and vitamin C to the deeper layers of the skin where they are needed.

Our Treatment Plan

It is recommended to have 3-6 sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. As this treatment targets the new skin cells underneath the top layers, the results are not apparent straight after treatment and may take a few months as the new skin comes to the surface.

Microneedling is not only fantastic for the treatment of ageing skin but is suitable to help diminish the appearance of scars and stretch marks.


Plasma Fibroblast Treatment And Non Surgical Eye Lift

Plasma fibroblast therapy is an aesthetic procedure some healthcare providers may offer as an alternative to laser, injections or surgical therapies to tighten and improve the appearance of skin.

What is plasma fibroblast therapy?

Plasma fibroblast therapy targets fibroblasts. These are collagen and protein producing cells in the dermis, the layer of skin just below your outermost skin layer. Fibroblasts play an important role in helping skin wounds heal as well as maintaining skin firmness and tightness.

Plasma fibroblast therapy uses a pen-like device that discharges a high-frequency electric current to small areas of the skin. The plasma tip doesn’t directly touch the skin, but instead releases a targeted current just above the skin. The hot current creates small holes, or micro-injuries to the skin. According to a 2019 article published in the PMFA journal, the thermal disruption or heat damage from plasma fibroblast therapy does the following:

  • breaks down proteins in the skin
  • encourages tissue regeneration
  • stimulates fibroblast activity
  • causes tissue contraction (tightening)

Healthcare providers may also call this approach plasma skin resurfacing.

What are the benefits of plasma fibroblast therapy?

Plasma fibroblast therapy is a nonsurgical treatment that may be used to treat the following conditions:

  • acne scars
  • photo ageing, including age spots
  • seborrheic keratosis
  • wrinkled skin, including the eyelids, neck, jawline and above the lips

Case Studies

According to a 2014 article published in the journal Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, the effects are expected to stimulate fibroblast production for up to 1 year after treatment.

One small 2007 study used plasma fibroblast therapies on eight participants. Each participant received one full-face treatment every 3 weeks. On conclusion of the study, patients reported a 37% reduction in facial wrinkling and a 68% overall improvement in facial appearance.

Double Chin Treatments

The simple truth is you don’t have to be overweight to get a double chin; age and genetics play a role in your skin sagging. You have been devoted to your exercise regime and opted for a healthier diet but despite all of your hard work, stubborn pockets of fat can linger, knocking your confidence and motivation levels.

A double chin can be incredibly difficult to shift, they're not always caused by weight gain and can be attributed to uncontrollable variables such as age and genetics.
Going under the knife is always an option but surgery can be daunting and often involves a long recovery period after the operation. There are non-surgical ways to banish your double chin so that you can feel more empowered when you are faced with your reflection.

Treatments For A Double Chin

Cryolipolysis Chin Freeze Treatment. Cryolpolosis could help to shape and sculpt your body whilst boosting your self confidence.

4D HIFU Treatment
4D HIFU (High Intensity Focused Ultrasound) treatment has become one of the most sought-after lifting treatments for face, neck & body.

Needle Free Dermal Fillers & Fat Desolving Injections

No-needle mesotherapy is a far less painful treatment than injectables.

The process is much more gentle than injectables that can cause bleeding and bruising. We can treat all areas of the face and body (apart from female breast tissue).

This treatment is performed using a Hyaluron Pen device with an oxygen infusion technique for plumping the skin. This treatment can be used to enhance lips or diminish fine lines and wrinkles. This amazing non-invasive technique offers enhancement to the same targeted areas as typical needle injections. The difference is the use of high-pressure technology to insert hyaluronic acid as opposed to injectables.

Needle Free Fillers are used mainly for Pitted Scarring, Nasal Labial Fold but also for treatment on the lips and nose.

Benefits of Needle Free Fillers

Anti-Wrinkle Injections

Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) is an injectable anti-ageing treatment used to smooth out wrinkles by temporarily weakening the underlying muscles. The treatment is a non-surgical procedure that is mainly used to treat the lines on the forehead, between the eyebrows and at the corner of the eyes.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are used as an effective treatment for deep lines and wrinkles. As your skin ages, it loses the collagen that normally holds the shape and volume of the skin, giving a 'dragged down' appearance. The fillers used are made of Hyaluronic Acid, a naturally occurring substance within the body.
