Home Hair Removal Electrolysis Device Vector Electrolysis - If you have embarrassing unwanted hair, you can now get rid of it permanently in the privacy of your own home.
The Vector Hair Removal System is the only medical grade electrolysis device available to the consumer.
 |
Features
- The hair removal system uses the process of electrolysis to permanently remove hair, unlike other battery operated radio frequency
devices (such as Igia) sold on infomercials.
- Permanent Hair Removal system offers the same results as professional electrolysis, but without the use of a needle.
- Very easy to use, simply grasp the hair with the tweezers and after a few seconds a chemical reaction occurs in the hair shaft and
causes the hair follicle to dissolve and loose it ability to grow hair. The hair that was treated is permanently removed.
- A meter on the front panel shows exactly how much power is being applied during treatment.
- You will save yourself hundreds of hours of aggravation and will never have to worry about that embarrassing stubble that comes
just several days after tweezing
- After treatments with the Vector System you will have reduced hair growth making shaving smoother and less irritating.
- One year limited period warranty.

How It Works
Electrolysis is a process in which a needle is inserted into the hair shaft and then an electrical current is passed through the hair follicle. Although hair itself is dry, below the surface of the skin it is immersed in a watery environment with a high mineral content. The electrical current from the needle causes a chemical reaction and turns the water and salt in the hair follicle into sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is an extremely corrosive alkali. If you were to put just a drop of pure sodium hydroxide on your skin, the painless hair removal would instantly burn a hole right through. This sodium hydroxide dissolves the hair follicle and the papilla causing a complete and permanent destruction of hair growth.
Even though this is a highly effective procedure, it is also has many drawbacks. First of all, the insertion of a needle into the skin over and over again can be quite painful. Treatment with a needle also requires a high degree of skill, the technician must guide the needle very accurately to reach the bottom of the hair follicle. Penetrating the skin with a needle also increases chances of infection.
As it turns out, it is completely unnecessary to insert a needle to produce sodium hydroxide in the hair follicle. The electrolysis hair removal machine works by simply grasping the hair with tweezers and applying a highly conductive gel with silver chloride. Without the electrically conductive gel this process would not work, as hair cannot conduct electricity. Applying silver chloride gel to the hair above the skin allows electrical current to pass over the non-conductive portion down into the hair follicle.
1. An electrode patch is placed anywhere on the body (this patch is used instead of the metal rod used during conventional
electrolysis for better comfort during treatment). This patch is then connected to the ground wire and plugged into the Vector. The
second wire is plugged into the tweezers.
2. The supplied conductivity gel is coated over the hair (the conductivity gel allows hair above the surface of the skin to conduct
electricity, without the conductivity gel the hair has a very high resistance and will not conduct electricity even at lethal voltages)
and that hair is then grasped with the tweezers as close as possible to the skin without actually touching the skin.
3. The current will flow from the tweezers down into the hair follicle, causing the watery environment inside the hair follicle to
react with salt, resulting in Sodium Hydroxide. If you were to put just a drop of sodium hydroxide on your skin it will burn a hole
right through. This chemical process is what dissolves the hair follicle and therefore the hair will never grow again.
You can very quickly treat various types of facial hair, although large areas such as the legs and chest will take a long time since
hair is being treated one at a time. The Vector System is the best investment you can make for the following reasons:
1. You pay for the body hair removal machine just once, but get to keep it for a lifetime and perform unlimited treatments.
2. Get the same results as professional electrolysis but in the privacy of your own home, and without paying up to $100 per hour for
electrolysis sessions.
3. Unlike waxing, shaving, or tweezing each hair treated by the Vector System is permanently removed and will never grow back.
For example, how much time do you spend every month tweezing your eyebrows? Now imagine tweezing your eyebrows with the
Vector System instead and then after just a few treatments never having to tweeze your eyebrows again! You will save yourself
hundreds of hours of aggravation and will never have to worry about that embarrassing stubble that comes just several days after
tweezing.
Men with very heavy beards can use it to treat random hairs to permanently reduce the amount of hair growth to get a cleaner look
when shaving. Even the sharpest razors will not give you a very close shave if the beard is very thick and coarse. After treatments
with the Vector System you will have reduced hair growth making shaving smoother and less irritating. Alternatively, some men
may prefer to completely remove the entire beard.
The vector system hair removal comes with a foot pedal that plugs into an input on the rear of the unit. When the foot pedal is plugged in, the
current only flows when the foot pedal is pressed. The addition of the foot pedal makes treatments much more efficient and
comfortable since it allows more precisely positioning the tweezers (the optimal position for the tweezers is as close as possible to
the skin, without actually touching the skin). This accessory comes with the vector. It is necessary to use the foot pedal to ensure
the most efficient and comfortable treatment.
Vector Vs. Radio Frequency Devices
Have you been sorely disappointed by that useless gadget you bought from a department store or a television infomercial? Was it not
any different that simply tweezing your hair? Yes, it was a complete waste of time and money.
Radio frequency devices work on the concept that radio frequency (RF) energy gets transmitted by the electronic tweezers down the
hair shaft. RF energy is similar to the energy produced in a microwave which causes a heating effect. The heat will dehydrate and
coagulate the hair bulb and the papilla. Unfortunately, hair cannot conduct current and therefore radio frequency (an alternating
current) will not move or flow down the hair shaft. There will be no dehydration or coagulation of the hair shaft.
There is some heating of the actual hair that is in contact with the tweezers due to friction heat caused by spinning water
molecules. Heat can potentially travel down the hair shaft but none of it will actually reach the hair follicle. This is due to the fact
that these devices have an FDA assigned frequency of 27.12MHz and a power output of 1.5 Watts. This wattage is so low that it
takes 60 seconds of RF energy to increase the temperature of the hair follicle by 2°F.
Now consider the following; it takes at least 108°F to cause any kind of damage to the hair follicle. With the normal body
temperature of 98°F, you will have to hold each hair for at least 5-6 minutes, one by one, to see any kind of result whatsoever. No
one would ever make that kind of a time investment.
Vector Vs. Laser
While lasers are now a very effective method of hair removal, this method is not permanent and the treatment is very expensive.
Here is some additional information you might want to know about lasers.
- Lasers only work on people with very light skin.
- Lasers do not work on people with gray, red, or light hair.
- Lasers can’t be used on sensitive skin.
- Laser treatment is very painful.
- Lasers can’t be used on areas with moles, freckles, or scars.
In comparison, treatment with the Vector™ machine works on any individual is far less painful, and the results are permanent.
Vector Vs. Battery Operated Devices
Do you really think that the hair removal device you saw in some catalogue or infomercial that uses a 9V battery is going to remove
hair permanently? We are completely amazed when we see commercials for various hair removal products and the absurd claims
made by these manufacturers. Let us settle this claim once and for all - there is not a single battery operated device on the
consumer market that can permanently remove hair or cause any reduction of hair growth. The electrolysis hair removal is no different then simply plucking
your hair with regular tweezers.
The battery powered devices put out only about ¼ W of power and usually operates on radio frequencies. These devices cause a
slight rise in temperature inside the hair shaft that can theoretically travel down into the hair follicle and after holding the hair for
approximately 10 minutes produce enough heat to actually cause some damage to the follicle. This means that you can potentially
remove 6 hairs per hour and hope that those hairs do not grow back.
The Vector System hair removal machine delivers the full power of a professional electrolysis machine, just like the machines used in professional
electrolysis salons. This means that you can finally own a hair removal device at home that truly lives up to its claims.
We guarantee that every single hair properly treated by the vector hair removal will never grow back. No other manufacturer can make
this claim.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the treatment painful?
There will be a tingling sensation during treatment, but most people tolerate it well. There are different power settings for different levels of comfort. However, there should be some tingling sensation for successful results.
How long does it take to see results?
Electrolysis permanently destroys hair. However, even after you completely clear an area in one treatment you will see some re-growth. The new growth that you see is not the same hair that you treated originally but fresh anagen hairs, which were resting at the time of the original treatment. Human hair grows in cycles and therefore not all hair is growing at once. If hair was not growing in cycles then humans would look like apes. It usually takes 3 to 4 months for all hairs to go through a complete growth cycle and all hairs will need to be electrolyzed before they stop their cycle. After each treatment you will notice about a 20% reduction in hair growth in the treatment area. This reduction is permanent and will compound until there is no more hair growth in the treatment area.
What would be considered permanent hair removal?
Permanent hair removal can not be completed in a single treatment of the area. Because hair grows in cycles you will have about a 20% reduction in hair growth. As the hair goes through all its cycles there will be no more hair growth.
Is this procedure going to irritate my skin?
There might be little red spots appearing around the treated area but they are only temporary, so do not be alarmed. You should consider that an indication of successful treatment since there are high levels of sodium hydroxide in the hair shaft.
What is the purpose of the patch electrodes? Does this provide a faster alternative to the tweezers?
The tweezers are the main treating article and what you would use as holding the hair for the time indicated in the manual. The electrode patch is designed to act strictly as the ground wire for the device - it should be placed anywhere on your body.
If it takes a few hair cycles to achieve permanent removal how can I be certain that the procedure is working for me?
If you are interested in testing the effectiveness of the this hair removal product, we suggest selecting a small treatment area such as eyebrows. This area has accelerated cycles and will be much easier to monitor for successful treatment then a large area such as your legs or chest.
I am a man with dark leg hair. Will the Vector work for me?
Yes. Vector is far from another non-functional, battery-operated device on the market. It is a full AC powered electrolysis unit that works just as well as ones in the salon. The Vector system does work on individual hairs and therefore a large area such as your legs will take a lengthy amount of time to treat. But keep in mind that once treated, the hair will never return. Unfortunately there are no miracles in the hair removal business and anyone trying to advertise one to you is either uneducated or lying for the sale.
How long do the gel and the patches that are included with the machine last?
Depending on the area of treatment, the gel will usually last a month to a month and a half of daily treatment. The patches can be reused until the adhesive is not sticking to the skin.
Is the Vector Safe?
If you are interested in testing the effectiveness of the vector system hair remover, we suggest selecting a small treatment area such as eyebrows. This area has accelerated cycles and will be much easier to monitor for successful treatment then a large area such as your legs or chest.
