A body-modification addict dubbed the 'Human Satan' has had his ears amputated to celebrate the end of Covid facemask rules.
Heavily-tattooed Michel Faro Praddo has undergone more than 60 procedures and has around 85 per cent of his body covered in ink.
He celebrated the end of Covid mask-wearing restrictions in his country by getting his ears amputated.
So far his modifications include 'horns' implanted in his forehead, the removal of part of his nose, ears and even his ring finger, and the addition of silver dentures.
He has also undergone liposuction and a tummy tuck, during which his belly button was removed.
Praddo, from the Brazilian city of Praia Grande, is known online as 'Diabao' ('Devil') but who has been dubbed 'Human Satan' in the media.
He lives with his wife Carol Praddo, better known as 'Mulher Demonia' ('Demon Woman'), who is also heavily modified and has had various procedures.
They have been together for around 10 years and started to undergo extreme changes to their bodies about five years ago.
In December 2021, Praddo underwent surgery to have a finger removed so that his left hand could appear more extraterrestrial.
In his latest modification, Praddo has removed his outer ears, stating that he was just waiting for face masks to no longer be mandatory to perform the procedure.
He shared a photo of his amputated ears next to a face mask and joked: "If I'm not obliged to use one anymore, I can dispense with the other, right?"
In another post, Praddo said: "I am extremely thrilled with his extreme modification I have done."
Praddo later told local media the operation was carried out in Brazil by Mexican body modifier 'Gattoo Moreno', who boasts 94,800 followers on Instagram.
He said he had been planning to remove his outer ears before mask mandates were imposed on the population during Covid pandemic.
Despite his devilish appearance, Praddo recently admitted that he believes in God.
He said: "I believe in God as a source of power, love, wisdom and various attributes that nurture life as a whole."
The Mirror told in 20201 how a man dubbed the world’s “most modified man” chopped off two of his fingers, turning his hand into a claw, as part of his bid to become a “black alien”.
Anthony Loffredo is hell-bent on his mission to transform his appearance, having already split his tongue, cut off his nose and covered himself in tattoos and piercings.
But the 33-year-old, from France, said he has so far only achieved 34 per cent of his desired transformation.
Anthony, who had his upper lip removed earlier this year, has been undergoing extreme body modifications for around a decade now, undergoing huge risks such as going blind whilst undergoing procedures like eyeball tattooing.
He also previously had both his ears surgically removed in order to look more extra-terrestrial and underwent tongue-splitting, reports claimed.
The Frenchman has travelled far and wide for his various procedures, heading to Spain last year to have his nose surgically removed as the operation is illegal in his native country.
