Dr Teston is a firm believer in the high standards, and surgical training, set by the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, and therefore believes that all cosmetic plastic surgery should be performed by a surgeon with a Plastic Surgery Fellowship from RACS.

Patient Philosophy

As a surgeon committed to producing individualised results for every patient, Dr Teston sees all of her patients at their initial consultation, rather than having a nurse or assistant perform the initial screening. This way, she can hear your concerns firsthand and recommend the best procedure for your needs and goals. She is committed to ensuring you leave her office with realistic goals and expectations about your surgery, and that you feel comfortable and confident with what lies ahead.

Many women in Sydney find it is more comfortable to talk to a female plastic surgeon about surgeries related to the breasts or other intimate areas of the body. Dr Teston understands the concerns facing her female patients, and will openly and honestly discuss her procedures with you. While your health and safety are her top priorities, she will also strive to achieve optimal cosmetic outcomes.
