Priscilla Presley confirms procedure by unlicensed plastic surgeon

Washington, Mar 26 : Elvis Presley's ex wife Priscilla has confirmed reports that she was operated upon by an unlicensed plastic surgeon.

Presley underwent a botched surgery in 2003. She has now confirmed that she was a client of Dr. Daniel Serrano, who was jailed for injecting industrial, low-grade silicone into women's faces.

Presley's rep confirmed that she was operated on by Serrano.

"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," Contactmusic quoted the spokesperson, as saying.

Serrano was indicted and convicted for smuggling drugs into America from Argentina, and the conspiracy and use of unapproved drugs that left some clients with holes in their faces and paralysis.

Serrano was released recently and is now under investigation by federal immigration officials.
