More victims are coming forward in the Miami Fix-A-Flat plastic surgery case - and the evidence isn't pretty.

Rajee Narinesingh told CBS Miami that accused transgender cosmetic quack Oneal Ron Morris pumped her face full of a toxic brew investigators say was a mix of tire mender, mineral oil and cement, leaving her disfigured for life.

Narinesingh, who was born a man, told the station that she was desperate to have plastic surgery and contacted Morris about two years ago after hearing about her through "word of mouth" in the transgender community.

"It becomes so dire that you want to match your outside with your inside that you're willing to roll the dice and take your chances," Narinesingh told CBS.

"As a transgender person, you're thinking 'Oh, my God, I can start to look like I want to look like and I don't have to spend a lot of money.'"

The botched backroom procedures left Narinesingh's face a lumpy, misshapen mess.

Her doctor, Coral Gables plastic surgeon Dr. John Martin, said he hoped surgery and therapeutic injections could undo the damage.

"She's got a long road, thousands and thousands of dollars to correct what was probably two or three hundred dollars to get the injection," Martin told CBS.

Morris was arrested earlier this month by police investigating a botched butt implant that landed a woman in a Tampa hospital in May 2010.

That procedure reportedly involved shooting a mix of cement, glue, mineral oil, and tire sealant into the woman’s buttocks.

Six victims, including Narinesingh, have come forward.

Morris was released from Miami county jail on Monday night after paying a $15,000. She refused to comment on the case, saying only "I have a lawyer."

She faces charges of practicing cosmetic surgery without a license.
