If you've been watching Dancing with the Stars, then you've probably noticed the strange lumpiness that is Priscilla Presley's face.

TMZ is now reporting that Presley was victim to an unfortunate cosmetic surgery scam artist who has since been imprisoned for conning and disfiguring the rich and vain.

Dr. Daniel Serrano gave Presley a miracle injection that he claimed, worked better than Botox.

TMZ reports: "In fact, Serrano was injecting industrial, low-grade silicone -- similar to what's used to lubricate auto parts in Argentina -- into the faces of these women. Several women, including Shawn King, Larry's wife, and Diane Richie, Lionel's wife at the time, held injection parties in their homes, with Serrano needling them with the non-FDA approved drug that he had smuggled in to the U.S. He charged between $300 and $500 a pop.

But wait, it gets worse. Serrano wasn't even a licensed doc in the U.S. The injections caused lumps, paralysis and holes in the faces of some of the women (and some men) he injected."

Serrano who has been nicknamed "Dr. Jiffy Lube" was recently released from prison and may be deported. For throwing the injection parties, Diane Richie was charged as an accomplice and served probation.
