VenaSeal Treatment for Waynesboro, MS Patients
For Waynesboro residents dealing with vein concerns, the Vein Institute's Meridian location offers venaseal treatment in a relaxed, comfortable setting. Every visit starts with a one-on-one conversation with your provider about your specific symptoms and goals.
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
Waynesboro 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
We keep the first visit simple ā 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.
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.
Why Waynesboro Patients Choose The Vein Institute
Patients from Waynesboro choose the Vein Institute because our Meridian office is approx. 60 mi (about 75 min) away and is staffed by a board-certified vein specialist rather than a general practice that treats veins occasionally.

Our clinical team includes a double board-certified vascular surgeon, a Certified Vascular Sonographer with more than 18 years of vein ultrasound experience, and a Nurse Practitioner trained directly by Dr. Thompson in sclerotherapy ā all focused exclusively on vein care.
