Sclerotherapy for Wiggins, MS Patients
Wiggins, MS patients looking for sclerotherapy don't have to travel far. The Vein Institute's Hattiesburg office serves Wiggins and the surrounding area, offering the same board-certified vein care available at all three of our South Mississippi locations.
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
Wiggins 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
Your first visit starts with check-in — no stack of forms to fill out — followed by a one-on-one conversation with your provider about your symptoms. Many patients also have an ultrasound the same day to help identify which veins are involved, so a treatment plan can be discussed right away.
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 4–6 treatments spaced about three weeks apart to reach the desired result.
