Michael Phillips Secures $13,500 for $4,000 Enlargement Surgery

Summary

  • More than $13,500 in GoFundMe donations has funded Michael Phillips' planned penis enlargement procedure, scheduled for August 17 in Charlotte.
  • The 38-year-old said the $4,000 operation will use semi-permanent dermal filler on his 0.38-inch penis to increase girth, though he said it will not cure his micropenis condition.
  • Phillips said the condition makes urination extremely difficult, has forced him to use pull-up diapers, and has left him unable to have a sexual relationship.
  • Cleveland Clinic defines micropenis as an atypically small penis measuring 3.67 inches or less; Phillips said he hopes the procedure will restore comfort and some normalcy in daily life.
