Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) for Lucedale, MS Patients
Patients from Lucedale travel a short distance to our D’Iberville office for endovenous laser treatment (evlt). The Vein Institute is home to South Mississippi's only 100%, full-time, board-certified vein specialist, and we welcome patients from Lucedale and nearby communities.
What Is EVLT?
A laser-based vein ablation procedure that closes a diseased vein from within, with little to no downtime.
EVLT uses laser energy delivered through a thin catheter to heat and close a diseased vein from within. The procedure lasts approximately 30 minutes and is performed using local anesthetic, so patients remain awake and comfortable throughout.

Who This Helps
Lucedale patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about evlt:
- Painful varicose veins
- Leg pain or cramps
- Leg heaviness or swelling
- Restless legs
- Skin discoloration or non-healing wounds related to vein disease
How It Works & Recovery
We keep the first visit simple — check-in, then a conversation with your provider about your leg veins and any symptoms you're noticing. An ultrasound is frequently performed the same day, since it helps confirm whether venous insufficiency is contributing to your symptoms.
EVLT is virtually painless with little recovery time required. A majority of patients resume normal activities immediately, and walking is encouraged the same day. Compression stockings help relieve symptoms during healing, and most patients don't need someone to drive them home afterward.
