OUR STORY

Before becoming President/CEO of Bio Sculpture USA, Elsie Visser had flaky, soft natural nails that often resulted in bleeding and sensitive fingertips. In 1989, while still living in South Africa, a friend of hers introduced her to the then ‘New’ nail care system called Bio Sculpture Gel, which she offered in her salon. After years of suffering from weak and damaged nails, she was amazed to see the transformation that Bio Sculpture Gel had done to her nails. Her once sensitive and damaged nails had become healthy and stronger than ever! She went on a quest to find out more about this remarkable product by attending the Bio Sculpture Brand Certification, where she learned about all of the health advantages of Bio Sculpture while becoming trained and certified on how to apply the products. She initially only wanted to take care of her own nails, but soon friends (and their friends) were lining up to have their nails done by her. With a business-orientated background as an integral part of her life since childhood, she decided to open up her own Bio Sculpture salon and later combined that with being and educator/area manager for Bio Sculpture in South Africa. This is where she fell in love with doing nails, as well as the beauty industry itself.

After running a very successful salon and area as manager for many years, the opportunity arose in 2000 for her and her husband, Henning, to bring and introduce this unique and healthy nail system to the USA. They did not hesitate. After moving to the United States, Elsie and Bio Sculpture USA have been helping Americans get healthier nails, one client at a time!

THE STORY BEHIND BIO SCULPTURE

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

ONE SOUTH AFRICAN WOMAN’S DREAM CHANGED THE LIVES OF THOUSANDS WORLDWIDE!

In the small, idyllic, Eastern Free State town of Clocolan South Africa lay a success story second to none, from one little girl’s fascination with beautiful nails ...

AND LIVES ON TODAY

All Bio Sculpture products are still being manufactured in South Africa by Bio Sculpture International and gets distributed from there to exclusive distribution centers in countries worldwide.

OUR INSPIRATION

Customer needs are always our priority. We firmly believe that Bio Sculpture's success is directly related to continued research and development of the nail industry's consumer needs. We don't look at what our competitors do - we find out what the "everyday woman" wants. There is an open channel from the end-user, via the technician and distributor, to Bio Sculpture International in South Africa, and ultimately to the Bio Sculpture manufacturing laboratory. Success will be inevitable if the lab can produce what the client wants.

Bio Sculpture is different from its competitors because we have never tried to compete. We want what is best for our clients. We listen to what they ask for, and try to satisfy that need as best we can. That is what makes us different.
