Police in Miami, Florida, allege that Oneal Morris, 30, left his patient with life-threatening health problems after treating her with the toxic concoction. She had sought a cut-price enhancement of her bottom and had agreed to pay $700 for the procedure.
Mr Morris, a transgender man who dresses and identifies as a woman, was part of a bizarre underground ring of unlicensed practitioners with no medical experience who injected substances into clients to enhance their curves at illegal "pumping parties", they said.
He has been charged with practising medicine without a licence and causing great bodily injury.
Mr Morris, whose own buttocks also show signs of cosmetic augmentation on an extraordinary scale in police booking photos, used potentially lethal ingredients including Fix-a-Flat, an aerosol spray that inflates and seals punctured car tyres, on the unnamed woman.
"In a world where body image is in the forefront of our media, this woman, for whatever reason, thought that this was the answer and she almost lost her life," Detective Michael Dillon told the Miami Herald.
