VenaSeal Treatment for Petal, MS Patients
Vein disease is common, and it's treatable. If you're in Petal, MS, the Vein Institute's Hattiesburg office provides venaseal treatment using modern, minimally invasive techniques ā the same approach used across all of our South Mississippi locations.
What Is VenaSeal?
A vein ablation option that uses a medical adhesive to seal a diseased vein shut.
VenaSealā¢ uses a medical adhesive delivered through a thin catheter to seal a diseased vein shut. It's one of the vein ablation options Dr. J. Keith Thompson offers, chosen based on each patient's vein anatomy and treatment goals.

Who This Helps
Petal patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about venaseal:
- Varicose veins caused by a refluxing (diseased) vein
- Patients who want to avoid wearing compression stockings for an extended period after treatment
How It Works & Recovery
Expect a relaxed, unhurried visit: check-in with our front desk team, then time with your provider to discuss your specific concerns. An in-office ultrasound is often recommended to confirm which veins need treatment, and we'll walk you through next steps before you leave.
VenaSeal does not require tumescent (fluid) anesthesia the way some heat-based ablations do, and most patients return to normal activity quickly after the in-office procedure.
