Sclerotherapy for Meridian, MS Patients
If you live in Meridian, MS and you're dealing with symptoms of vein disease, the Vein Institute offers sclerotherapy close to home. Our nearest office to Meridian is in Meridian, where Dr. J. Keith Thompson and our clinical team diagnose and treat vein conditions using modern, minimally invasive methods.
What Is Sclerotherapy?
A quick, in-office injection treatment that closes off spider veins and small varicose veins with little to no downtime.
During sclerotherapy, a solution is injected directly into the affected vein. The solution irritates the vein wall so it collapses and is gradually absorbed by the body, while blood naturally reroutes through healthier veins nearby.

Who This Helps
Meridian patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about sclerotherapy:
- Visible spider veins or small varicose veins
- Mild aching near surface-level veins
- Veins that haven't improved with conservative measures like compression stockings
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.
Sclerotherapy is quick and causes minimal discomfort. Most patients resume normal activities the same day and wear compression garments afterward. On average, patients need a minimum of 4ā6 treatments spaced about three weeks apart to reach the desired result.
