Having moved to Mexico to undergo radical bodily transformations widely outlawed in his native France, Loffredo spent years sharing his intense and often uncomfortable journey on social media.

In recent months, he revealed a new relationship with model Melina Shakur, divulged his restaurant struggles, and even toyed with the idea of amputating one of his legs. All-in-all, Loffredo was never shy about sharing his journey.

But mere weeks after announcing the end to what he called his "Black Alien Project," Loffredo seemed to completely disappear from his various social media channels.

Update, February 5: Anthony Loffredo and the "Black Alien" reappears on social media

Having seemingly disappeared overnight just last week, Anthony Loffredo and his "Black Alien Project" reappeared on Instagram, but not on TikTok, complete with new posts and some wise words.

"Sometimes dreams can't come true," Loffredo captioned a post of him with an elongated head, "So we start using photo editing... 200% Black Alien Project Evolution"

It is unclear neither why he had disappeared from socials, though it could simply have been a temporary ban, nor what the new "Evolution" of his transformation could entail.

"Black Alien" leaves Instagram and TikTok

Until recently, Loffredo had millions of followers on Instagram and TikTok.

Before announcing its end, he claimed to have completed 65% of his transformation. When looking back at his journey, he referred to his past self as a "child, clearly lost."

As of Wednesday, the only trace left of his online presence are fan pages.

It's not clear what the reason behind this disappearance may be. Is this what the end of the "Black Alien Project" looks like?

"The project to which I gave everything, love, passion, determination, strength has lost its meaning over the years," Loffredo explained back in December. "I am putting an end to the modification of my body for the moment... I no longer like this world."
