10 Things You Didn't Know About Hollywood
1. Meet Dr Dick, Penile Enlarger To The Stars
Known locally as Dr Dick, Dr Melvyn Rosenstein was Southern California’s pre-eminent practitioner of penile enlargement in the early 1990s, until he was investigated by the California Medical Board.
One of the doctor’s high-profile patients was producer Don Simpson, who underwent “girth enhancement”, the 15-minute surgery where fat removed from the abdomen is injected into the penis. As is usually the case, the procedure was a disaster.
“It was very painful,” said an associate of the producer. “There was a lot of swelling and fever. In the end they had to take out whatever it was they put in there. You can’t believe how pi**ed Don was.”
