Conditions and Symptoms We Help Treat
Many patients feel “off” without knowing why. We help identify what’s driving those symptoms and how to improve them.
Many patients come to us feeling unheard or unsure why they don’t feel their best. Our evaluation looks at the whole picture so we can create a plan that matches your needs.
Common concerns we help address include:
Low energy or chronic fatigue ⋮ Weight gain and slow metabolism ⋮ Low libido or sexual wellness concerns ⋮ Mood changes, anxiety, irritability ⋮ Hot flashes or night sweats ⋮ Brain fog or trouble concentrating ⋮ Poor sleep or difficulty staying asleep ⋮ Muscle loss or decreased strength ⋮ Irregular menstrual cycles ⋮ Perimenopause and menopause changes ⋮ Low testosterone symptoms ⋮ Insulin resistance or elevated A1c ⋮ Hair thinning or skin changes ⋮ Difficulty recovering from stress
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, a deeper look at hormones, thyroid function, cortisol patterns, inflammation, nutrition, or metabolic health may provide answers.
Clinical Oversight & Safety
Your safety is our highest priority. All treatments at Lake Forest Regenesis are guided by a licensed medical provider who specializes in hormone and metabolic health. We follow a structured process to confirm that treatment is appropriate, safe, and aligned with your goals. This includes a detailed history, targeted lab testing, review of medical risks, and regular follow-up to monitor progress. Medications are obtained from trusted compounding or specialty pharmacies to ensure purity and dosage accuracy.
Hormone therapy, GLP-1 medications, peptide protocols, and IV treatments are never provided without proper evaluation or supervision. If care is not appropriate, we will explain why and help direct you to options that better fit your needs. Our goal is to support long-term wellness in a way that is medically responsible, transparent, and patient-centered

Medical Weight Loss and Metabolic Support
Lose weight safely and steadily with guidance that protects muscle, energy, and metabolic function.

We offer:
GLP-1 medications (Semaglutide and Tirzepatide when appropriate)
Personalized nutrition guidance based on your metabolic needs
Monitoring of blood sugar, inflammation, and hormones

Functional Medicine and Longevity Support
We help identify what’s underneath common symptoms so you can feel better now and protect your health long-term.
For patients who want a clearer understanding of their health, we take a deeper look at how the body is working. This may include checking inflammation, gut health, stress and cortisol levels, thyroid function, insulin and blood sugar control, nutritional status, heart and blood vessel health, and how well the cells make energy. These areas often explain why a person feels tired, gains weight more easily, or has trouble sleeping or focusing. Instead of just treating symptoms, we look for the cause. Our goal is to improve how you feel now and protect your health as you age.
A Better Path to Feeling Like Yourself Again
Many people notice changes in their body that don’t make sense: weight gain without changing their diet, brain fog for the first time, low libido, poor sleep, or stress that feels harder to recover from. Too often, they are told, “Everything looks normal,” even though they feel far from it.
Our clinic takes a different approach. We look deeper at hormone patterns, nutritional status, inflammation, thyroid function, insulin sensitivity, and other markers that influence how you feel each day. By understanding the root causes, we can guide you toward a plan that actually makes sense for your life and long-term goals.
We work with patients throughout Lake Forest and the North Shore who want private, thoughtful, and medically guided care—not quick fixes or one-size-fits-all plans.
Peptide and Regenerative Therapies
Cutting-edge regenerative therapies tailored to your needs.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that help signal repair, recovery, and cellular balance. They can complement hormone therapy or be used alone.
Common goals supported with peptides include:
Faster recovery from stress or exercise
Improved sleep and daytime energy
Better metabolic function
Immune support
Tissue repair and joint comfort
Healthier skin, hair, and collagen
Enhanced cognitive clarity and performance
All peptide programs are medically guided to ensure safety, purity, and appropriate use
IV Therapy & Vitamin Support
Customized nutrient therapy to support performance and resilience.
IV therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants directly into the bloodstream so your body can use them more effectively. These infusions may support:
Immune protection
Fatigue and low energy
Hydration and recovery
Metabolic support
Skin health and collagen
Stress resilience
Athletic performance
Post Workout Recovery
Options include NAD+, Vitamin C, Myers Cocktail, amino acids, and other targeted blends. IV therapy is offered in-clinic for safety and oversight.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Care?
Many patients come to us because they feel “off” but are told their labs are normal or that their symptoms are just part of aging. Our evaluation looks beyond surface numbers to understand what is really happening in the body. You may be a good candidate for our care if you:
Have symptoms that don’t match “normal” labs
Want more energy, strength, or mental clarity
Are entering perimenopause or menopause
Have signs of low testosterone
Struggle with metabolism or weight
Want support with sexual health
Prefer a personalized, thoughtful approach
Want guidance for healthy aging
If this sounds like you, a tailored medical plan may help you feel and function better with greater confidence as you age.
Who May Not Be a Candidate
We believe in safe and responsible care. Some treatments are not right for everyone, and certain situations require different types of medical support. Before starting care, we complete a detailed medical review and order labs to make sure treatment is appropriate and safe. Care may not be a good fit if you:
Are seeking unsupervised hormones or peptides
Want rapid or extreme changes without medical guidance
Are unwilling to complete labs, follow-up, or monitoring
Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Have uncontrolled medical conditions that require specialty care
Safety always comes first. If our clinic is not the right match, we will not leave you without support. We will guide you toward resources, specialists, or care settings that better meet your needs so you can move forward with confidence and clarity.
Hormone Therapy For Men
Targeted hormone therapy designed to help men feel stronger, think clearer, and perform better at every stage of life.
Hormones are essential for maintaining strength, vitality, and overall wellness. Testosterone, the primary male sex hormone, plays a crucial role in developing secondary sexual characteristics, regulating reproductive health, and supporting physical and emotional well-being. For men experiencing low testosterone, hormone therapy offers a transformative solution to restore balance, energy, and confidence while enhancing quality of life.

Hormone Therapy for Women
Evidence-based bioidentical hormone therapy for women in Lake Forest and the North Shore, tailored to your symptoms and goals.
Hormones are vital for regulating reproductive health, maintaining energy, and supporting overall well-being. Estrogen and progesterone, the primary female sex hormones, influence secondary sexual characteristics and play critical roles in many body systems. Hormone therapy provides women with a path to restore hormonal balance, improve vitality, and achieve a renewed sense of health and wellness.

Enhancing Your Plan With Targeted Body Treatments
Strengthen the body from the inside out for better everyday function and long-term results.
While hormone and metabolic therapy improve how the body works on the inside, Emsella® and Emsculpt NEO® strengthen key muscle groups that affect daily comfort and confidence. Many patients find this combination helpful for pelvic floor support, sexual health, core strength, and body composition. This full-spectrum approach allows patients to age with better strength, control, and resilience—not just better labs.
Emsculpt NEO®
Next-generation body contouring to strengthen, tone, and sculpt.
Emsculpt NEO® works best when it is part of a bigger plan that supports muscle, metabolism, and healthy aging. Many patients use it while working on hormone balance, GLP-1 weight loss, or peptide therapy. When hormones are optimized, the body builds and maintains muscle more easily and recovers better from stress.
Patients using GLP-1 medications often lose fat faster than muscle, so Emsculpt NEO® helps protect strength and body composition during weight loss. Peptides may also support tissue repair, performance, and energy for those who want more active lifestyles. When combined thoughtfully, Emsculpt NEO® can enhance both physical results and overall function, making it easier to stay strong, confident, and active as you age.
Emsella®
Advanced pelvic floor strengthening without downtime.
Emsella® fits well into treatment plans that support pelvic health, sexual wellness, and healthy aging. Pelvic floor weakness can be linked to childbirth, menopause, low hormones, or changes in tissue quality over time. Hormone therapy may help improve vaginal comfort, sexual arousal, and tissue strength, while Emsella® strengthens the muscles that support bladder control and sexual function.
Some patients also benefit from peptide therapy or functional and regenerative medicine support for tissue repair, inflammation, or nervous system balance. When used together, these treatments address both the structural and hormonal sides of pelvic health. This combination can help patients feel more confident, comfortable, and in control in daily life and during sexual activity.

How long until I feel better?
