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.

the plastics -- click to launchAnd get this. 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.

49. It's pretty stupid to have someone injecting crap into your face in the first place. When will these celebrities realize that taking care of your body and aging gracefully and NATURALLY is the only thing that makes sense.

52. This is like the episode of NipTuck where the evil plastic surgeon made up his own concoction and gave injections in a back room of a nail salon. These people are so sad and gullible. What is wrong with this country?!?

Can you really blame him?

54. Sure he is a con man. But why call him a "phony doc"? If he is a physician in Argentina (assuming), that's good enough for me. Not having a US license does not make him a phony doc.

55. Dont trust anyone from Argentina.

56. Vivi,

thanks for your pst...you are proving proof of the quality of people Argentines are. I love how you emphasize that you are EUROPEAN looking. You can take the Argentinian out of Argentina, but you can't take the racism out of the Argentine.

What does it matter where I'm from. Argentines are despised by all South American because they are racist and obnoxious. Instead of reminding everyone how much Euro-trash blood you have, learn from the Brazilians and their infectious joie de vivre.

Argentina was an ok country until it embraced facism and nazism. From there one it has been a constant downhill. Recently you STOLE over $50billion from investor's abroad and had the gall to blame the US. Of course, you can't expect much froma country who worship Maradona, a Castro-loving-cokehead, who never showed any remorse for the hand of God goal. I mean how can you respect a country whose proudest moment in sports involves cheating?

anyways....TMZers watch out for those smooth talking Argentines, not to be trusted.

Most US citizens would not have a clue how to determine if a doctor has a current, valid license in another country. The ONLY sane thing is to check your own state's records for the license. If the physician is not listed, or has marks against him or her, then scratch the name off your list NOW! If a foreign doctor holds a valid foreign license, he can jump through the hoops in the US to obtain a US license. And above all - not all license requirements are the same in all countries.

59. Poor Priscilla Presley. She was always a beautiful woman and now she looks like a horror show. It's hard to get old, especially when you've always been beautiful but there are less dangerous methods to maintaining a youthful appearance. Too much value is placed on physical beauty--it's all so temperary. A face lift is much more effective and if it's performed by an experienced surgeon, it would definitely be better than this. Look at these old bags in Hollywood--they look like characitures of themselves and, the blown-up lips. Who are they fooling--they all like like idiots like the public can't tell. By the way people, don't vote for Barack Obama. His wife is a racist and he will triple taxes to pay for poor black families and his running mate, Bill Richardson will use the money to pay the way for more illegals in our country. Be smart--vote for John McCain.
