Priscilla Presley has a very smooth look for a woman who is 62, almost a perpetual Joker from "Batman" smile, and it isn't due to genetics, creams or potions.  Unfortunately she was one of "Dr Jiffy Lube's" victims.

"Dancing with the Stars" Presley went to Dr. Daniel Serrano around 2003 claims TMZ.com. Serrano - an Argentina doctor was well-placed within the Hollywood wives scene and started giving them what he claimed were miracle injections that worked "better than Botox."

TMZ alleges that Serrano was injecting industrial, low-grade silicone ( auto-parts lubricant) into a select group of women.  

TMZ claims that 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."

Disfigured by the injections, Larry King's wife Shawn King has said the injections created a lump in her lip that made it difficult to speak and drink liquids. Serrano charged between $300 and $500 for this criminal act.

TMZ also claims Serrano "wasn't even a licensed doc in the U.S". The illegal injections "caused lumps, paralysis and holes in the faces of some of the women (and some men) he injected."

Serrano is currently being investigated by federal immigration officials and could be deported.

The story continues, as the now ex wife of Lionel Richie, Diane Richie, was also indicted as an accomplice. She pled out and was placed on probation.

TMZ claims Priscilla is "undergoing corrective work."
