The story about the transgender woman from Miami facing charges for injecting a woman's rear with cement, tire inflater and super glue keeps getting stranger.
When Oneal Ron Morris was arrested for injecting a woman’s buttocks with her homemade concoction, everybody remarked on the photographs released by Miami Garden Police. It showed a petite woman with massive hips and an equally massive rear.
A cosmetic surgeon based in Detroit is offering an explanation for her grotesque body shape.
"I suspect Morris maximally enhanced her buttocks using polypropylene string implants obtained overseas or through the black market," Dr. Anthony Youn told msnbc.com. Youn publishes a popular celebrity cosmetic surgery blog, and is the author of his memoir In Stitches.
He says polypropylene string implants were used to enhance breasts back in the late 1990s prior to being banned in 2001.
"These implants consist of yarn-like string that gradually absorbs water and expands in size when surgically implanted into the body," Youn explains. "If these string implants are in place long enough, they can result in a massive, cartoonish enlargement, as can be seen in the breasts of a handful of adult entertainers.
"While I’ve never heard of polypropylene being implanted into the buttocks, it’s very possible Morris underwent this procedure. The best treatment for polypropylene string implants is surgical removal," he said.
Youn issued this warning to the fake surgeon.
"If Morris does have polypropylene string implants and does not have them removed, she can expect her buttocks to continue to grow until they eventually drag on the ground."
