Dr. Jiffy Lube on ICE

SerranoDr. Daniel Serrano ain't Dr. Jiffy Lube no more. TMZ has learned the guy who injected Priscilla Presley with motor oil has just been arrested and is being held by immigration officials for possible "removal" from the US of A.

Serrano, who got out of the Federal pokey just a week ago, served 15 months for smuggling into the country a non-FDA drug he used to inject Hollywood's A-list with what he called a miracle wrinkle cream. The silicone he injected is used to lubricate auto parts.

Serrano, who was a cosmetic surgeon in his home country of Argentina, was not licensed in the U.S.

Serrano is being held without bond at Mira Loma Detention Center. He was arrested late yesterday by ICE -- Immigration and Customs Enforcement -- specifically, the joint criminal alien removal task force.

We're told Serrano was staying at a friend's apartment building when he was arrested. It was a secured building. When a visitor left, ICE went in, knocked on the door and got the Lube they were looking for. We're told Serrano wasn't told why he was taken in.

1. What a shame that this man took advance of women trying they're best to hold on to their youth. Let this be a lesson, anyone can scam a person who's desperate and don't do the research on that person.

4. It's actually astounding that they had to reassert him--shouldn't he have been turned over to ICE immediately after completing his sentence.

5. He should have expected the Federal "swoop-down." With all of the light shining on this, there was NO WAY this guy was going to be allowed to remain in the country for long. No way.

12. Seriously, couldn't she (and the other alleged, un-named victims) afford to go to someone highly repected and highly recommended rather than the guy with the clinic on the corner?

15. Its amazing how the system can work, good for us I guess.....what my sister and I do not get is this...why would celebs with so much money, ala PP, go to a snake for cash? Or was this so long ago that they were the first so to speak and he was the only source. God I hope thats it or once again my theory holds...rich people are always finding a way to save a dime like the rest of us. LESSON LEARNED.
