Amber Luke’s $120K Transformation: From "Plain" to Proud

Amber Luke, a self-proclaimed "blue-eyed white dragon girl" from Brisbane, has shared a stunning throwback photo of herself before her dramatic $120,000 body transformation. The body modification enthusiast has spent a decade reshaping her appearance through tattoos, surgeries, and extreme procedures, turning herself into a living work of art.

A Radical Journey

Before her transformation, Luke had a single quote tattooed on her collarbone and a small piercing on her cheekbone. Posting the photo on Instagram, she captioned it, “No face tattoos, just a dermal [piercing]. We’ve all got to start somewhere.” Another photo of her at 18 revealed a bare face and a slender figure with simple rib tattoos.

However, beneath the surface, Luke says she was struggling. “I was catatonically depressed, suicidal, and a walking dead girl,” she shared. “I hated myself the majority of the time. 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.”

The $120K Transformation

Luke’s transformation has included $50,000 on nearly 600 tattoos and $70,000 on extreme body modifications. These include blue ink injected into her eyeballs—a procedure that blinded her for three weeks—cheek and lip fillers, a tongue split, pointed ear implants, breast augmentation, and a Brazilian butt lift.

Recalling the harrowing eyeball procedure, Luke described it as “brutal,” telling Barcroft TV: “It felt like [the tattoo artist] grabbed 10 shards of glass and rubbed it in my eye.” The artist had gone too deep into her eyeballs, leaving her temporarily blind. Despite the ordeal, Luke has no regrets but stated she won’t pursue more extreme modifications in the future.

"No Regrets, Only Pride"

Luke candidly admits she didn’t like her appearance before her transformation. “I absolutely hated the way I used to look. It wasn’t me. I was boring,” she told Daily Mail Australia. Now, she feels empowered and unapologetic about her choices. “At the end of the day, it’s the only thing I can take to my grave with me.”

Mixed Reactions

Luke’s striking appearance has drawn both admiration and criticism. While she’s received overwhelming support from strangers, some have offered harsh opinions. “There are always a few nasty, opinionated ones who try to make you feel inadequate, but I never let them get to me,” she said.

Her message to critics is clear: “I’m not harming anyone in the process. I’m doing what I want to do, and if it makes me happy, then so be it.”

As Amber Luke continues her journey of self-expression, she inspires a broader conversation about individuality, acceptance, and the power of transformation.
