A body modification enthusiast who wants to become a black alien has confessed that he now struggles to speak after having his nose and top lip removed in his latest shocking transformation.

Anthony Loffredo, 32, has already covered his body – including his eyeballs – in tattoos and had his tongue split in his bid to look like a ‘black alien,’ The Mirror reported.

The Frenchman, who documents his dramatic physical alterations for his 227,000 followers on Instagram, said he had had his nose removed in Spain as the procedure is illegal in France.

Other than piercing and tattooing, body modifications that result in injury are illegal in many European countries.

As such, Loffredo did not specify exactly where, when or by whom his nose and upper lip were removed, when speaking about the procedures in an Instagram live question and answer session.

In a previous Instagram post discussing his nose removal, Loffredo thanked an account called @oscarmarquezbodymod for having ‘marked’ his life.

He wrote: ‘Now I can walk with my head high thanks to you I am proud of what we did together.’

Loffredo did admit in the recent Instagram Q&A to struggling to speak since the removal of his top lip but this does not seem to have dampened his enthusiasm for body modification.

He said he dreamed of removing his skin entirely and replacing it with metal and listed his arms, legs and fingers, along with the back of his head, as the next parts of his body he wants to have modified.

Speaking to French newspaper Midi Libre in 2017, Loffredo said he had been ‘passionate about mutations and transformations of the human body’ from a young age.

When he was working as a security guard in his twenties, he realised he was not living in the way that he wanted to.

‘I stopped everything at 24 and left for Australia’, Loffredo, who according to his Instagram is now based in Montpellier, France, told the paper.

‘It has become normal, even unconscious, to constantly think about my plans [for body modification] for the next few months,’ The Mirror reported Loffredo as saying.

The striking-looking individual said he loved ‘getting into the shoes of a scary character’.

‘I often settle down somewhere and play a role, especially at night in the dark streets,’ he said.

‘I explore the contrast between the role I play and myself.’
