Raiden Dos Caras, 24, also cut off his ear, covered himself entirely in tattoos and underwent scarification branding.
It involves burning the skin with heated metal to form a simple but permanent design.
Raiden, who has been nicknamed the “skull of two faces”, only has photos of himself without tattoos from when he was 17.
He had his first tattoo done when he was just 12, and has since undergone 25 body modifications, the reports.
Raiden said wife Angie Khaterine, 24, does not mind but his daughter Alice, three, worries.

And his 11,000 Instagram followers have mixed opinions of his look, with many preferring his older appearance.
