Remy is known for his heavily tattooed and modified look. He's admitted that getting new ink and various piercings, gauges, and other body mods is a way for him to reinvent himself.

As one can easily tell, Remy's body is filled with tattoos – some being blackout pieces. But the body mod fanatic doesn't mind adding to his collection in any way he can, such as revamping old pieces in major ways.

He flaunted two of his latest tattoo rework jobs on his Instagram page that has 203,000 followers. The first reworked piece he displayed was an eyeball on the back of his neck. According to his IG, where he posted a side-by-side photo of the old work and the new piece, the original was done in 2011.

"The original piece was probably my least favorite, and worst tattoo I’ve ever personally had," Remy wrote in the caption. "That being said it was blacked out many years ago, and I’ve never really showed it off."

He admitted that "no laser [was] necessary, just blackout and start again." The new tattoo is an elaborate piece that also features an eye, but this one seems to resemble that of a lizard, dragon, or dinosaur of sorts.

Though he didn't show off a "before" pic for the second reworked piece he showed off on IG, Remy had no issue showing off his latest face tattoo.

"Both sides of my newly reworked opaque gray and white over red head roses, and newly rework white on black leaves," he wrote.

"So much for 'permanent,'" he concluded.
