Bryan has had a nose job, fat injected into his cheeks, laser hair removal and his fair share of botox.
The 35-year-old even had an eyelid lift to mimic “Britney’s big beautiful eyes.”
The superfan described the Oops I Did It Again singer as “perfection” and said she helped him understand himself.
Bryan said his surgical journey began in when he was just 17 and his mum funded his £22,000 veneers.
He told the Daily Star: “I’ve been doing this since I was 17 and I am not finished. I am an ongoing work of art.”
He continued: “When I look in the mirror at myself I am very happy. Am I perfect? No, absolutely not.
He added: “I’m human just like everyone else and I aspire for a certain level of beauty.
“I draw my inspiration from Britney Spears and that will never change because my admiration for her has only grown over the last two decades.
“I think she is more beautiful now than I did 20 years ago because my emotional growth is stronger and she will always be the pinnacle of beauty in my eyes and I will always strive for a beauty like hers.”
Bryan funds his expensive habit through running a marijuana edibles company and has now revealed the commitment it takes to achieve the signature look.
He said he gets Botox every six weeks and hair removal on his entire body every 10 weeks.
He also claims he splashes out around £400-a-month on lotions to keep his skin looking youthful.
However, Bryan admits his “obsessive” lifestyle does attract negative attention, including those who criticise him for his plastic surgery.
“It’s not for everyone and I’m not encouraging everyone to go out and get plastic surgery but I am encouraging everyone to be body positive in whatever way that looks like for you,” he said.
“I also want to be clear that I’m not disillusioned into thinking I could bring a photo of Britney Spears to the best plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills and I would then look like Britney Spears.
“That was never something that was in my head thinking I would look 100% like her.
“I understand my face, my symmetry, my features and what I’ve done is work in collaboration with plastic surgeons to see what characteristics could be altered in a way that is inspired by Britney to resemble that look of hers.
“I do get that people don’t understand it. People might call me weird or crazy but I think being open about it in the way I have will help eliminate the stigma.”
The superfan has met his idol three times, but the most memorable was the first time when he was on holiday with his family in Maui.
He said: “It was amazing meeting her. I went into a little outdoor flea market in Hawaii and heard a really small, very soft spoken voice with a southern accent behind me.
“I’ve never been more nervous. I was face to face with my biggest idol and inspiration, she was completely not glammed, stripped of make-up, very real and so gorgeous.
“I really got to have a special conversation with her and I got to thank her for being such an inspiration to me and helping me find my identity and I also got to tell her that I loved her smile so much that I had my teeth done to resemble hers.
“She told me my smile was absolutely beautiful and that was a tremendous compliment of a lifetime.
“She left me feeling like she was a really kind and down to earth person.
“She happened to be the most famous woman on the planet but she didn’t act like it.”
This comes as Britney has just released her bombshell tell all memoir.
The pop icon’s book includes allegations about her relationship with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake, which have created shockwaves ahead of the book’s release.
The memoir has reportedly left the Cry Me a River singer and his wife reeling.
