As you just may have guessed from the title, Lizardman has aimed to turned himself into another animal with a whole range of ‘treatments.’ His [body modifications](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonhuman-life) include implants, [tongue splitting, teeth shaping](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolved-dentistry), and a number of [tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temporary-oral-tattoos). The results are both stunning and scary. Either way, he has managed to carve a great career out of his unusual appearance, with gigs booked at festivals and shows all over the world. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 68% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Extreme Body Modification:** There is an opportunity for innovative cosmetic and medical procedures that are less invasive and more widely accessible. - **Alternative Fashion:** There is an opportunity to create eco-friendly and sustainable fashion that caters to alternative fashion trends like tattoo culture and body modification. - **Shock Value Marketing:** There is an opportunity to create marketing campaigns that focus on unconventional and extreme visuals that grab the attention of consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Cosmetic Surgery:** There is an opportunity to create less invasive, more affordable, and more widely accessible cosmetic procedures that cater to the growing demand for unique and extreme body modifications. - **Tattoo Industry:** There is an opportunity to create eco-friendly and sustainable tattoo ink and equipment that cater to the growing demand for alternative and unconventional tattoo culture. - **Alternative Fashion Industry:** There is an opportunity to create eco-friendly and sustainable clothing and accessories that cater to alternative fashion trends like tattoo culture and body modification. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Otherworldly Wooden Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wooden-sculptures-1.md) - [Tattooed Digital Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superlotl-by-inkbox.md) - [Surreal Kyiv Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apartment-with-a-lizard.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Flesh Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/junji-ito.md) - [Film-Celebrating Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lizard-lunch.md) - [Swamp Bathing Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/book-a-swamp.md) - [Futuristic Museum Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unnatural-history-museum-of-singapore.md) - [Challenging Infinity Puzzles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lizard-infinity-puzzle.md)
