Two fingers were removed from a body-modification enthusiast, who wished to become a “black alien” in order to transform his hand into a claw.

Loffredo’s controversial transformation of his body has drawn praise and dismay from both his Instagram followers. 

One person wrote, “Oh my goodness you did it. Although it was unbelievable to me, it is true. It’s my hope that your body adapts.

Other users weren’t as supportive.

One other wrote, “You are 100 percent going to regret it eventually.” 

One user commented: “This is both frightening and amazing at the same moment.” This is something I do not believe I could achieve, however I am grateful for your willingness to live the life you have always wanted.

Loffredo’s nose and top lips were removed in the latest transformational procedure. Loffredo later admitted to his difficulty speaking. 

Because the French law prohibits such a procedure, he had his nose pulled in Spain earlier in the year.   

Many European countries have made body modification that results in injury illegal, including piercing or tattooing.

Loffredo didn’t specify where, by whom, or when his upper and lower lips were taken out when he spoke about them in an Instagram Live question and answer.

The latest transformative procedure comes after Loffredo had his nose and top lip removed. He later confessed that he now struggles to speak

In an Instagram posting about his nose surgery, Loffredo thanked @oscarmarquezbodymod of having “marked” his life.

At the time, he wrote: “Now I can stand tall thanks to you. I’m proud of all that we accomplished together.” 

Loffredo admitted that he had difficulty speaking after the surgery, but it does not appear to have affected his passion for body modifications.

According to him, he dreams of having his skin removed completely and replaced with metal. He also listed his legs, arms and fingers as parts of his body that he would like to see modified.

Loffredo spoke to Midi Libre, a French newspaper in 2017, and said that he was ‘passionate’ about the mutations and changes of the human body since a very young age. 

In his twenties, while working as a guard at a bank, he realized that he was living ill.
