Dr. teng tze yeong

The first thing you notice about Dr Teng Tze Yeong is his warm and genuine smile—the approachable Dr Teng graduated with a Bachelors of Medicine and Surgery from the National University of Singapore, and is also a Member of the prestigious Royal College of Surgeons (England), which he joined in 2013 after completing the highly competitive postgraduate surgical diploma exam. With six years of public sector service under his belt, including a year and a half in the Navy as a dedicated medical officer, Dr Teng also has experience in clinical surgical specialties including: Plastic Surgery, Otolaryngology, Paediatric Surgery and Hand, General- and Breast Surgery.

Dr Teng’s decision to practise aesthetics stems from a sincere desire to enable individuals to elevate their quality of life through improving their body image. For him, the satisfaction of building up a genuine relationship with his patients, based on trust and results, is a driving force in his work. 

Amongst all the procedures offered at Acclaro, Dr Teng himself has a keen interest in fillers because of their propensity for immediate and visible results. In addition, he is also a firm advocate of the Forever Young BBL™ therapy for its ability to retain the youthful properties of skin with quantifiable results and minimal downtime.

Constantly keeping himself up to date with the very latest practices and treatments in this rapidly evolving field, Dr Teng makes it a point to attend key industry updates and medical and aesthetics conferences regularly. He also keeps abreast of the latest developments and advances in medical aesthetics through habitual reading of the latest publications in established medical journals, and by diligently attending professional training workshops to build on, and advance, his skills. For Dr Teng, the core of beauty springs from the individual. He believes that each person has their own yardstick for measuring beauty and that his role is to aid them in attaining that. He sees every patient as a unique individual and strongly believes in tailoring the aesthetic treatments according to the unique and personal requirement of each person.

Dr Teng’s personal philosophy and approach to aging is that it is an inevitable part of life but his calling is to enable and empower his patients to do so gracefully and beautifully at every step of the process and to bring out the beauty of the individual through total holistic management in addition to aesthetic treatments.

In his free time, you can find Dr Teng unwinding at restaurant openings, tasting food and imbibing well-aged wine. As someone who truly enjoys good food, his instagram handle @trufflesteng is a visual testimony of his love for the aromatic fungus and cites Korean fried chicken as his weakness (and according to him, especially when placed next to Watermelon Soju). Currently fluent in English, Mandarin and Cantonese, the cheerful Dr Teng is also hard at work learning Japanese and Russian, two languages he hopes to employ on his future travels to far-flung, exotic destinations.
