Ethan “ModBoy” Bramble, from Australia, started his body modification journey at just 11 years old.
With over 200 tattoos, stretched ears, a split tongue, and a removed belly button, he’s a true living canvas. He has spent around $39,000 USD transforming his body into a bold expression of himself.
His radical look made him stand out, capturing attention wherever he went.
Despite embracing his unique appearance for years, Ethan now feels regret especially about his facial tattoos.He shared openly how his look affected not only himself but also how others perceived him.
Ethan worries about the impact his tattoos have on his young daughter’s life.
What began as self-expression slowly turned into a source of anxiety and judgment.
Determined to change, Ethan started laser tattoo removal to “clear the canvas” of his skin.
The process is long and painful, but he hopes it will help him feel more comfortable day to day.
Over the past year, he has gone through multiple sessions to lighten his tattoos.
His goal is to reclaim a fresh start and a new version of himself.
Though he doesn’t fully regret who he is, Ethan embraces growth and self-reflection.
His story reminds us that no matter how permanent the past may seem, change is always possible.
We can reshape our identity and future with courage and patience.
Ethan’s journey inspires anyone feeling stuck in their own skin to seek renewal.
