Ethan “ModBoy” Bramble, an Australian body modification enthusiast, has over 200 tattoos and has undergone numerous procedures, including ear stretching, tongue splitting, and even removing his belly button.
Starting at age 11, his transformation has cost him around 60,000 AUD (39,000 USD). Despite his bold choices, Ethan now regrets some of his tattoos, particularly those on his face, due to the judgment he faces in everyday life, including concerns for his young daughter.
In an interview, he shared his regret, explaining that the tattoos have caused anxiety, and he has begun laser treatments to remove them.
He’s been undergoing treatments for a year and is excited for the next two years as his face tattoos gradually fade.
Ethan’s journey is about reclaiming his sense of self and reducing the judgment he’s faced. His story is a reminder that we can always redefine ourselves, no matter our past choices.
