Though once Amber looked like the typical blonde girl-next-door, she’s experimented with body modification so much that today she’s virtually unrecognizable.

As well as tattooing her eyeballs (and just about every inch of exposed skin she has) she also underwent a procedure to give herself a forked tongue.

According to the Daily Mail, the Brisbane, Australia resident has dropped $120,000 on body modifications, including $50,000 on around 600 tattoos and $70,000 on surgical procedures.

Her unconventional appearance may be startling to some, but Amber insists that her transformation has played a big role in saving her from a life of depression and possible suicide.

The ‘Dragon Girl’ explained: “I was so catatonically depressed, suicidal and was a walking dead girl. I was numb. I hated myself majority of the time – that hatred ran deep. It tormented me. Now, I’ve totally transformed myself into someone I’m proud of being. I’m a strong woman who knows exactly what she wants and who she is.”

A few years ago, Amber posted a selection of photos showing how she looked before she began modifying her body… and it’s safe to say the results are eye-opening.
