If you have been watching “Dancing with the Stars” like I have like my wife has, you may have noticed that something doesn’t quite look right with Priscilla Presley. Her face is extremely bloated like she has had way too many Botox injections. Well there is news circulating out there that may offer a clue. It seems that her appearance may be the work of an unqualified plastic surgeon. The explanation for her appearance is that Priscilla was treated by Dr. Daniel Serrano who was imprisoned for injecting patients with unsafe forms of silicone.
In my opinion, things like this are to be expected when people mess with Mother Nature.
Priscilla Presley Was a ‘Victim’ of Bogus Doctor
Dancing With the Stars contestant Priscilla Presley is making news for something other than her footwork, acknowledging that she had once fallen victim to an unqualified plastic surgeon identified as Dr. Daniel Serrano.
In a statement released on Tuesday, a rep for the 62-year-old Presley said, “Priscilla Presley was one of many documented victims of Dr. Serrano. An investigation which uncovered his misconduct ultimately lead to his imprisonment. Ms. Presley dealt with this matter years ago and everything is well.”
In November 2004, federal agents arrested Serrano, who was only a nurse in the U.S., and charged him with importing and distributing a drug that was a combination of synthetic collagen and tiny solid beads that was legal in some countries but not approved by the FDA, PEOPLE reported at the time.
“He’s a very charming guy,” Ellen Lavinthal, who sometimes availed herself of Serrano’s services, told PEOPLE in Dec. 2004, “and he had a lot of fabulous endorsements from the women he had been treating.” She added: “He’s very good at taking advantage of women.”
In 2006, Serrano pleaded guilty in federal court in Los Angeles to conspiracy, smuggling and use of unapproved drugs, the Los Angeles Times reported. He was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison.
