Priscilla's Doc BS'd Star after Star

The phony doc who injected Priscilla Presley with industrial-grade silicone used to lubricate auto parts had a scam that proved irresistible to Hollywood's elite.

Someone who got injected by Daniel Serrano spoke with TMZ about getting lured in. Serrano, who was a doctor in Argentina but unlicensed in the U.S., told patients the serum, which he claimed would remove wrinkles, was much better than Botox -- an all-natural drug he said was used by all the top models in Paris. Serrano told his victims they could not get the drug in the U.S. The patient we spoke with said that made all the women go crazy, thinking they were getting something special, and they were -- a lube job.

Serrano was a major name dropper. We're not sure if he really injected all the women he claims, but trust us, there were a lot. The patient we spoke with says she was injected with a needle that was just sitting on a table, unprotected. He didn't clean the needle or clean her face before injecting it.

The injections were "extremely painful." Serrano said there would be no swelling. The patient we spoke with says she blew up like a balloon, and when the swelling finally went down, the drug didn't eliminate lines.

With Shawn King, Larry's wife, Diane Richie, Lionel's wife at the time, and other famous women, you would think this would be a sign -- he only accepted cash. One woman had to go to the bank because he wouldn't take her personal check. Trust us, that woman had enough in her account to cover it.

31. This happens in the transexual world on a daily basis! This is a quick fix to a temporay beauty affect that will haunt you for the rest of your life!! In "my" world these injections are done in parking lots, clubbathrooms back stage dressing rooms and even in hotel rooms. So beware of these things cause they give you a good look , temporarily, qucik fix but the long term is too high of a price. Unfortunatly we want the great look fast.

32. Hola, Vivi...I remember this story way back as well. I think it's resurfacing because Priscilla is on DWTS and everyone is commenting on "Joker" face. The FDA may be a bureacracy, but it does offer some protection...lastly, why do some in the USA think that if a process is from Europe it must be BETTER! Stupid is as stupid does ~~~~Forrest Gump~~~~

33. You know after 15+ years it's about time some of these husseys woke up and actually believed they could be scammed! That's what vanity can do I guess. Even a dumba** like me would check credentials before having work done!

34. You would think that Priscilla would have researched a legitimate Board Certified American Plastic Surgeon. It seems to me that about 15 years ago I recall the media reporting her daughter observed by the paparazzi being associated with celebrity surgeon Dr. Edward Terino out in Thousand Oaks.

38. He was young, cute and had a disarming foreign accent. None of these broads (or guys ) bothered to see if he was licensed to practice. They took him at his unctuous word.

It's called seduction, and it's the oldest trick in the book. Beware, boys and girls.

And by the by, isn't Larry King's (current) wife supposed to be LDS? The money for those silicone injections could have been tithed instead. Brigham Young first looked upon the Great Salt Lake Valley and declared, "This is the place." I reckon this Shawna broad first laid eyes on Los Angeles and said the same thing.

41. What idiot would let someone stick an opened, unsterile needle in their face - sorry you got a lube job but that was plain stupid

42. I have read that the "doctors" who do these procedures don't even have to be licensed. Please, people, if you must torture your bodies like this, go to a board certified physician and NEVER get these kind of things done at a "party". God knows I could use a lot of help, but I'd rather be natural than end up like some of the pictures I've seen on this site and others.

45. To "Stay in your country":

Your ignorance is truly repulsive. First of all, like I previously said, I am from Argentina, and look! I am writing to you in English! Does that mean that, by your standards, I am supposed to stay in this country, or should I leave as well?

I think you are more prone to make this country stink than "South Americans" with your plain ignorance and racism. And unless you are a native American, for which I hold the uttermost respect, then let me remind you, my friend, that you are an immigrant as well. What would you have done if the native Americans would have said the same thing to your ancestors?

No, my country isn't great. But I am smart enough to realize that it's not the country that makes it bad, it's the people that live in it that makes it bad and I was smart enough to realize that and I adopted this country as my new home and a place where I can build a fututre for my family. and let me tell you one more thing, I could not be any more greatful to this land and the people that live in it for opening their doors and welcome us. I have not been in the country long enough to apply for citizenship yet, but I sure will as soon as I am given the chance. It's the most I can do for a country that has given me so much.

In regards to the "puerto rican" and "dominican" accent, you clearly have no idea of history. Let me tell you...Population in Argentina is mostly of european decent due to the possibilities that the country offered to immigrants during the World War (both of them). I have been told that I don't look from Argentina, but Russia, or any of the eastern European countries.

so please, please, please, I beg you, take your ignorance somewhere else and free the TMZ readers of your stupidities.

Thanks!
