Vein disease is common, and it's treatable. If you're in Sumrall, MS, the Vein Institute's Hattiesburg office provides clarivein treatment using modern, minimally invasive techniques ā the same approach used across all of our South Mississippi locations.
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.

Sumrall patients often come to the Vein Institute with one or more of these symptoms or questions about clarivein:
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.
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.
