ClariVein Treatment for Laurel, MS Patients
If you live in Laurel, MS and you're dealing with symptoms of vein disease, the Vein Institute offers clarivein treatment close to home. Our nearest office to Laurel is in Hattiesburg, where Dr. J. Keith Thompson and our clinical team diagnose and treat vein conditions using modern, minimally invasive methods.
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
Laurel 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
At your consultation, you'll meet with your provider to talk through your symptoms and history. If an ultrasound is needed to map the affected veins, our Certified Vascular Sonographer can often perform it during the same visit, and you'll be given a treatment plan based on the results.
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.
