ClariVein Treatment for Collins, MS Patients
Collins, MS patients looking for clarivein treatment don't have to travel far. The Vein Institute's Hattiesburg office serves Collins and the surrounding area, offering the same board-certified vein care available at all three of our South Mississippi locations.
What Is ClariVein?
A non-thermal vein ablation option that closes a diseased vein using a rotating catheter and a medicated solution.
ClariVeinĀ® combines a rotating catheter with a medicated solution to close a diseased vein from the inside, without using heat. Dr. J. Keith Thompson offers ClariVein as one of several vein ablation options, chosen based on each patient's vein anatomy.

Who This Helps
Collins patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about clarivein:
- Varicose veins caused by a diseased vein that needs to be closed
- Patients who prefer a non-heat-based vein ablation option
How It Works & Recovery
Plan for a consultation focused on you: your provider will ask about your symptoms, review your history, and often recommend an in-office ultrasound to map the affected veins. From there, you'll discuss which treatment options make sense for your situation.
Because no heat is used, some patients find ClariVein involves less local anesthetic than heat-based options. Most patients return to normal activity the same day.
