There was a time when Toxii looked like any other woman — long blonde hair brushing against her tanned shoulders, soft pink lipstick, and delicate gold hoops framing her smiling face. But that was four years ago.

Today, the 31-year-old woman from Belgium is almost unrecognizable. Her once-familiar features have been replaced with something out of a dark fantasy: her skin is now covered in intricate black tattoos, her eyes are pitch black, and a pair of horns protrude from her forehead.

For some, it’s terrifying. For her, it’s liberation.

The Beginning of an Extreme Journey

Toxii began her body transformation journey four years ago, driven by what she calls “a deep fascination with imperfection.” What started as a few tattoos quickly evolved into a full-body metamorphosis involving extreme surgeries and permanent modifications.

“I love imperfection,” she said in a recent interview. “It’s what makes you unique.”

The self-proclaimed “body modification addict” has since undergone multiple procedures, including full-body tattoos, breast augmentation, scarification, genital modifications, and — most controversially — the complete removal of her nose.

“I’m the first woman in history to have my nose removed,” she proudly told her followers on Instagram, where she documents every stage of her transformation.

The Face Before the Change

Before her radical transformation, Toxii looked like the girl next door. In a 2019 photo she shared on social media, she can be seen with long golden hair, glowing tan skin, and a natural smile. She wore false lashes and pink lip gloss — a stark contrast to the dark, almost otherworldly appearance she has now.

Her old image went viral when she posted a “before and after” comparison. One photo showed the smiling blonde; the other, the tattooed woman with black sclera eyes and silver-tipped fangs.

“People couldn’t believe it was me,” she said. “But it is. Both of them are me — just different versions.”

From Human to “Dark Entity”

Over the years, Toxii has undergone dozens of painful and experimental procedures. She has implanted subdermal ridges in her forehead and neck, reshaped her ears to resemble those of a mythical creature, and split her tongue in two — dyed black to match her new aesthetic.

Even her teeth have been sharpened into small, pointed fangs capped with silver.

“I love the darkness. I love the way it makes people look twice,” she explained.

Her transformation is not just skin deep — it’s become her identity. Online, she has gained thousands of followers who are fascinated, horrified, or inspired by her courage to embrace what many would call “monstrous.”

To her, however, it’s about authenticity. “I’m happier than I’ve ever been,” she said. “This is me, truly me.”

The Most Painful Procedure Yet

Of all her modifications, the nose removal surgery was by far the most extreme.

In a candid interview with street artist Devon Rodriguez, shared on her Instagram, Toxii opened up about the pain and psychological preparation involved in the procedure.

“It was much more painful than I imagined,” she admitted. “Even more painful than getting my horns implanted.”

The surgery required medical and psychiatric approval, something she says took months to secure.

“You can’t just walk into a clinic and say, ‘I want my nose cut off,’” she said. “They have to make sure you’re mentally stable and fully understand what you’re doing.”

Keeping Her Body Parts in Jars

Toxii revealed another surprising fact during her conversation with Rodriguez: she keeps all the parts of her body that have been removed — including her nose — preserved in small glass jars.

“It’s a way of honoring who I used to be,” she explained. “Every part of me has a story, and I don’t want to erase it.”

This revelation shocked many of her followers, sparking both fascination and concern. But for Toxii, it’s simply part of her truth — a ritual of remembrance in a life defined by transformation.

Online Reactions: Shock, Worry, and Support

While Toxii embraces her new appearance, not everyone has been supportive. Her posts often draw thousands of comments — some admiring her courage, others expressing fear or disbelief.

One user wrote:

“You were so beautiful before. Why did you do this to yourself?”

Another added:

“I can’t understand how someone could go through so many changes in such a short time. The body and mind need space to adapt. It feels impulsive and dangerous.”

Others were more empathetic, seeing her as a symbol of radical self-expression.

“You’re brave,” one supporter commented. “You’re living life on your own terms, and that’s something most people are too scared to do.”

Despite the backlash, Toxii says she doesn’t regret a single decision. “People fear what they don’t understand,” she said. “But I’m not trying to please anyone. I’m creating art — and that art is me.”

Healing the Pain, Inside and Out

Behind the shocking visuals lies a long recovery process. After each surgery, Toxii spends weeks — sometimes months — healing physically and emotionally.

She told Devon Rodriguez that her nose surgery took about eight weeks to recover from fully.

“It was hard to breathe, to sleep, to eat,” she said. “But once I healed, I looked in the mirror and felt peace. It was worth every second.”

She admits that some days are more difficult than others. “There are mornings I wake up sore or tired. But then I remember why I did this — to be my truest self.”

A Symbol of Imperfection

When asked what drives her, Toxii often returns to one simple idea: embracing imperfection.

“I think beauty lies in flaws,” she said. “We’re taught to hide what makes us different — scars, wrinkles, oddities — but those are the most interesting parts of us. I just took that philosophy to the extreme.”

Her story has inspired discussions online about body autonomy, beauty standards, and the limits of self-expression. Some see her as a rebel, others as a cautionary tale.

But Toxii doesn’t see herself as either. “I’m not trying to prove anything,” she said. “I just want to live in a body that feels right for me.”

More Transformations to Come

If you think her journey is over, think again.

Toxii says she’s already planning more modifications — though she hasn’t revealed exactly what those will be. “This is a lifelong project,” she said. “My body is my canvas.”

For her, it’s not about shock value or attention. It’s about transformation as an act of freedom. “I used to feel trapped in my skin,” she said. “Now I feel alive.”

“Both Versions Are Me”

Scrolling through her Instagram feed is like walking through two worlds — one filled with soft pastel photos of her past life, the other with dark, haunting portraits of her present self.

But Toxii insists there’s no contradiction. “People ask me which version I prefer,” she said. “The answer is both. The old me was the foundation. The new me is the evolution.”

She often posts motivational messages to her followers, encouraging them to “embrace their weirdness” and ignore societal pressure to conform.

“You don’t have to go as far as I did,” she wrote in one post. “But you do have to stop hiding who you are.”

A Divisive Icon in the Age of Self-Expression

In a world obsessed with filters and cosmetic perfection, Toxii stands as a strange kind of mirror. She embodies both the beauty and the danger of absolute self-expression — the freedom to reshape, redefine, and even destroy what was once “normal.”

Her story may be shocking, but it forces a question few dare to ask: how far would you go to feel truly like yourself?

As one commenter put it, perhaps unintentionally summing up the fascination that surrounds her:

“She’s terrifying… but she’s free.”
