Wow, it's like there's a party in my mouth, and everyone's invited.

Dr. Daniel Serrano made heaps of cash pandering to the vanity of Beverly Hills ladies like Larry King's wife Shawn, Lionel Richie's wife Diane, TV chef Carrie Wiatt, and stylist to the stars Vivian Turner.........(using) Artecoll, a permanent wrinkle filler that's all the rage from Paris to Beijing.
But "Dr. Dan" is no man of medicine — at least not on this side of the equator, authorities say.
What was worse, Artecoll is illegal in the United States.
Now the alleged fake doc is in an L.A. federal jail on charges of importing and distributing an unapproved medical device.
He was arrested last week after a 13-month investigation by the California Medical Board and (the FDA).
Richie was also nabbed. She allegedly helped him administer Artecoll last year at "injection parties" held at her soon-to-be-ex-hubby's mansion and other Beverly Hills locations.
Agents seized various safe deposit boxes and bank accounts stuffed with more than $1.2 million in cash, along with jewelry, syringes and bottles of Artecoll. ........Artecoll treatments (sold) for $500 per shot — cash only.
...Turner, who devotes her career to bettering the looks of A-list clients like Cameron Diaz and Tom Cruise, got her treatments free. "Diane said Dr. Dan would give me a free injection for every patient I introduced him to".......
So Turner, assuming the doctor was on the up-and-up, brought Serrano to Larry King's house, where he worked on the CNN star's wife Shawn.
After being injected by Serrano on six separate occasions — in her lips, cheeks, temples, ears and other areas — Shawn King developed an "aesthetically displeasing bump" on her lower lip, she told investigators.
Now she has trouble speaking and drinking from cups and glasses. King says she's seen two doctors in hopes of fixing her disfigurement.

...Jackie Kennedy...
Aw c'mon. Let's call a spade a spade- she married him for his money. Period end of story.
Absolutely not, which made her a 'ho in my book. I couldn't do it for anyone's fortune and I don't care if some could. I'm sure you couldn't, either.
pictures?
LOL.....would be neat to see.....but not posted online .... yet.
LOL.......and Bondo probably works better.
No, I wouldn't. I have values, which doesn't include selling myself or my body for marriage or money. Although I have had some intersting offers.
While Shawn King has a bump on her lip, did the good doctor remove those pesky wrinkles?
Of course the wrinkles are gone. He just plumb forgot to tell her that her lip was gonna swell up to the size of a golf ball.
If the news reports were right, Jackie kept fighting for more money than she was awarded and his daughter Christina caved in just to get Jackie out of her life.
Wow, it's like there's a party in my mouth, and everyone's invited.
Do tell... ;)
I don't think the people who shot up with Avecoll are celebrating.
Don't forget those gigolo's now. Haley berry is probably an expert on them.
I agree. If these prima-donnas hadn't any problems, they certainly would have overlooked the fact that it is illegal and would have recommended it to all of their vain, egotistical whining freinds.
"in her lips, cheeks, temples, ears and other areas — Shawn King developed an "aesthetically displeasing bump" on her lower lip, she told investigators."
I don't know what this woman looks like, but I find it odd that someone so concerned about aesthetics has to wake up next to larry king. Larry looked better when he was on radio.
She is quite pretty....your typical blonde goddess.
Larry's bank account looks better than he does.
They have a gorgeous second or third home, think it's in Utah or Idaho where she's from.....she's a Mormon.
And she'll keep on marrying the same type. She can't stop.
Aha....I better email Laura Ingraham....I think I've found the explanation for John Edwards permanent lip milk dud.
LOL....nice zinger.
I've heard some of the more desperate of the self-absorbed in an emergency use Preparation H .....yes, that Prep H.
Seems it shrinks facial wrinkles.
Maybe No-bounce Eddie should try it on his lip.
Models use prep H for under eye puffiness before photo shoots...seems to shrink alot of tissues...must not work on thighs though, or we'd of heard about it.
