In an audacious quest to metamorphose into a “black alien,” a man renowned as the world’s “most modified man” has taken the extraordinary step of severing two of his fingers, rendering his hand into a claw-like form.

Anthony Loffredo, a 33-year-old from France, is resolute in his mission to redefine his appearance, with a track record of bifurcating his tongue, excising his nose, and adorning his body with tattoos and piercings.

Despite having undertaken a series of astonishing alterations, including the removal of his upper lip earlier this year, Anthony asserts that he has only reached 34 percent of his envisioned transformation.

For over a decade, Anthony has engaged in radical body modifications, often at considerable risk, including undergoing procedures like eyeball tattooing that temporarily jeopardized his vision.

His willingness to push boundaries led him to surgically remove both his ears in his pursuit of an extraterrestrial aesthetic, alongside other changes such as tongue-splitting.

Anthony has traversed the globe for his various transformations, seeking medical procedures abroad due to their illegality in his native France. Last year, he traveled to Spain to undergo surgical nose removal.
