Now, Visible Effects services range from liposuction and skin stitching to eyebrow sculpting and massage. The business is tourism accredited and has won a multitude of business awards and continues to pre-empt client demand and improve its brand awareness, client retention as well as expanding services and products available.
All staff at Visible Effects are well qualified and have continued ongoing education and training. Strong retail sales of quality skincare and make up are an integral part of the business and Visible Effects has further developed its retail ranges to include its own exclusive spa body and mineral make up ranges.
