How to Works

  • Microneedling and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) Facials

    FACIALS:

    Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries activate the skin’s natural healing process, promoting the production of collagen and elastin—two essential proteins that improve skin elasticity and firmness. The treatment is particularly effective for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation, resulting in smoother, more radiant skin.

    PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) facials involve injecting your own PRP into targeted areas such as the under-eye area, around the mouth, and in nasolabial folds. PRP is rich in growth factors that enhance tissue repair, promote skin regeneration, and boost overall healing. When combined with microneedling, PRP further accelerates skin rejuvenation, delivering even better results for anti-aging and skin repair.

    This treatment is a non-surgical option for those seeking natural skin rejuvenation, restoring youthful vibrancy while addressing specific skin concerns.

    The initial treatment will last 90 minutes, including a 30-minute consultation to thoroughly review your needs, discuss expectations, and answer any questions. Subsequent treatments are scheduled for 60 minutes

  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) hair treatments

    HAIR TREATMENT:

    PRP hair treatment can help with hair loss and thinning, and can be used to stimulate hair growth. The platelets in the blood contain growth factors that signal the body to regenerate tissue, which can lead to thicker, healthier hair.

    The initial treatment will last 90 minutes, including a 30-minute consultation to thoroughly review your needs, discuss expectations, and answer any questions. Subsequent treatments are scheduled for 60 minutes

  • PRP treatment Female sexual wellness and incontinence

    PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment for female sexual wellness is designed to address common concerns such as vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and reduced sexual arousal. This innovative therapy stimulates tissue regeneration and collagen production, improving sexual comfort and enhancing overall sensitivity. Additionally, PRP can be highly effective for managing urinary incontinence by promoting collagen growth in the bladder and supporting improved bladder function.

    The initial treatment will last 90 minutes, including a 30-minute consultation to thoroughly review your needs, discuss expectations, and answer any questions. Subsequent treatments are scheduled for 60 minutes, offering continued care and support to optimize your results and well-being. This non-surgical treatment provides a natural, rejuvenating option for women seeking to enhance sexual health and restore confidence.

How to Works

  • Nutritional injections

    Nutritional injection appointments are typically scheduled for 15-30 minutes and include the treatment itself. For first-time patients, appointments are usually scheduled for 30 minutes to allow time for consent forms to be signed and safety assessments to be completed before treatment.

  • Acute Visits: Adults and Children

    Acute visits are typically scheduled for 30 minutes. Once you are an established patient, children, adolescents, and adults may be seen in person and in some cases virtually for same-day acute visits.
    Common reasons for same-day appointments include sore throat, ear infection, teething, cough, sinus infection, stomachache, rash, UTI, yeast infections, and more.

    Naturopathic modalities are highly effective for treating most acute illnesses, but we always provide information on both natural and conventional treatments to ensure you have the best care options.

  • Well-child visits

    Regular check-ins are essential for keeping children healthy and thriving. At RegenND, we believe these visits are a vital part of a child’s healthcare, which is why our well-child appointments are 45-60 minutes long.

    During these visits, we monitor your child’s growth and development, optimize their health, and focus on preventing future illnesses. It’s also an opportunity for parents to receive guidance on nutrition, sleep changes, toilet training, and other developmental milestones.

    We follow the American Academy of Pediatrics’ recommended schedule for well-child checkups: newborn, 3-7 days old, 2 weeks, and at 2, 4, 6, and 9 months in the first year. In the second year, visits are scheduled at 12, 15, and 18 months, followed by annual checkups thereafter.

How to Works

  • To establish care for a child: Less than 18 years of age.

    This is NOT a well-child exam. If your child has already seen Dr. Dugas for a well-child exam, you can schedule a pediatric follow-up visit.

    If your child has NOT yet established care with Dr. Dugas, we begin with an initial appointment, each lasting 60-90 minutes. Subsequent follow-up visits, ranging from 15 to 75 minutes, are tailored to your child’s ongoing needs.

  • Adolescent medicine

    Adolescents over the age of 10 should be seen for annual checkups or more frequently if specific health issues arise. Adolescent medicine focuses on the unique health needs of pre-teens, teenagers, and young adults. At RegenND, we understand the complexities of this life stage and offer primary care that addresses the physical, emotional, and developmental changes that occur during adolescence. Our providers are skilled in treating a wide range of adolescent concerns, from growth and hormonal changes to mental health and reproductive well-being.

    Initial appointments for concerns are 60 minutes

    Follow-up appointments typically last 30-45 minutes

    Annual Well-child exams are scheduled for 60 minutes

We focus on injury prevention, muscle and joint health, cardiovascular function, and any underlying conditions that could impact participation in sports.

How to Works

  • To establish Care as an Adult.

    To establish care as an adult, we begin with two initial appointments, each 60-90 minutes. The first visit is a comprehensive review of your medical history, lifestyle, and concerns, followed by necessary lab or imaging orders.

    At your second appointment once your lab results are available, you’ll return for a detailed review. We’ll explain your results in a way that’s easy to understand, helping you gain clarity about your health. From there, we create a personalized treatment plan that addresses any imbalances or concerns identified through the labs. This plan may include nutritional recommendations, supplementation, natural therapies, and lifestyle modifications, all tailored to your specific needs and goals.

  • Follow-up Appointments Adults

    Ongoing maintenance is key to ensuring your long-term health. During follow-up visits, we’ll track your progress, retest labs when necessary, and make any needed adjustments to your treatment plan. These regular check-ins allow us to fine-tune your care and provide ongoing health education to keep you optimized for the future.

    Subsequent follow-ups, ranging from 15-75 minutes, are tailored to your ongoing needs.

  • Annual Wellness Exams: Adult

    Annual exams include physicals, gynecological exams, relevant screenings, and a review of your medications, supplements, and nutrition. We also help you set personalized health goals for the year to support your optimal health.

    The first visit focuses on a comprehensive review of your medical history, lifestyle, reproductive health concerns, and fertility, hormonal and postpartum goals. Based on this, we will order any necessary lab tests or imaging.

    At your second appointment once your lab results are available, you’ll return for a detailed review. We’ll explain your results in a way that’s easy to understand, helping you gain clarity about your health and fertility.
