Rick Tobin8 July 2026Top notch!Posted on HealthgradesKim Champion12 September 2023Above And Beyond! Boca has lots of good plastic surgeons. My experience with Dr. Vaca is that he is a Great plastic surgeon! During my recent surgery, he encountered some undiagnosed problems. He worked about two extra hours in surgery to fix all of that, plus finish the job we originally planned. If I wasn’t totally knocked out with anesthesia I would have given him a standing ovation in the operating room! I read the other reviews left by previous patients. I agree with all the wonderful attributes they listed about Dr. Vaca.Posted on HealthgradesLaura Montero1 December 2020Dr Fagien performed lower blepharoplasty. It took me quite sometime to go see him because I live one hour away. It’s hard with busy schedule. I’m so happy I finally made it. He did an amazing job. He’s very knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease. He’s a leader in his field and rightly so. He has a wonderful staff and impecable office. I highly recommend him.Posted on Google
Boston Transportation Dispatch Training10 August 2021If I could give Dr Fagien and his team 500 stars instead of just 5, I would! This is an amazing doctor with tons of experience. I am very satisfied with the results of my lower eye lid surgery which happens to have a fancy name: Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty. Being a business owner, a public speaker, and a zoom instructor, I have to look presentable. At some point, due to genetics, i noticed that my lower eyelids started sagging. It did not feel good. So I found the best oculoplastic doctor and asked him to fix it. Dr Fagien suggested the transconjunstival blepharoplasty. Taken into account that my skin was otherwise young and firm, no fillers and no other extra procedures were offered. The surgery and the post op was not at all painful! That was a great bonus!lol I came back to work in 5 days. I listened to all the recommendations and followups from my Dr’s office. His team deserves a special separate 5 star review! Everyone was super helpful and accommodating! I am very happy now! Thank you Dr Fagien!Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User6 January 2021I had a procedure with Dr Fagien almost 3 weeks ago. At the initial consultation, Dr. Fagien answered all of my questions very clearly and patiently . His knowledge and excellent reputation made me feel that I was in very good hands. The surgical coordinator , Davina carefully explained everything I needed to do pre and post op. She was also at the surgical facility on the day of my procedure , taking such great care of me, making sure I was relaxed and comfortable. She also called to check on me after the proceedure to see how I was doing. Amber and Thelma the nurses , thoughtfully answered of all of my questions and concerns after my proceedure and were always kind and helpfull. I was very happy with my whole experience at this medical practice.Posted on Healthgrades

C V25 August 2025Blepharoplasty with Dr. Fagien: A Review I recently had a blepharoplasty performed by Dr. Fagien, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Before the procedure, I had very hooded eyelids, but now I have a visible eyelid—a change so subtle and natural that I don't even feel the need to wear makeup anymore. The results are incredibly refreshing, making me look more awake and like the best version of myself. From the very first consultation to the final follow-ups, Dr. Fagien's kindness and care were exceptional. He is a true perfectionist with an incredible eye for even the smallest detail, which put me completely at ease. He genuinely cares about his patients' comfort and outcomes, and his surgical skill is second to none. I was also impressed by his specific post-operative care protocol, which I followed precisely. My recovery was surprisingly easy, with no pain, no bruising, and only mild swelling for about a week. Within a few days, most people had no idea I had even had surgery! The entire experience far exceeded my expectations. I am so grateful to Dr. Fagien for his precision, surgical skill, and genuine kindness. I highly recommend him to anyone considering eyelid surgery.Posted on Healthgrades

Betty Bassan23 July 2021I've been going to the Dr. Faigen for over 10 years. He first did my upper and lower eyelids and I’ve been going back for Botox on a regular basis. He is the only one I trust for eye cosmetic surgery. On my last visit, I was concerned about having Botox and the Covid vaccine. He sat down, explained everything in detail and I felt very comfortable with going ahead with Botox. His office is immaculate and his staff is professional. Davina is especially kind and friendly!Posted on Google
Josie Murray13 May 2022Honestly wonderful experience from start to finish. I had an accident and needed stitches in my eyelid. I was scared and upset and the team was great. It’s nice to feel heard and understood from a doctors office, especially when you’re in crisis. Dani at the front desk really listened to what was happening and made sure I could be seen as soon as possible and answered all my questions. Dr. Vaca worked quick and well. It was such a fast and painless process. They answered any and all questions without judgement. When it was time to remove the stitches I was in and out the fastest I’ve ever been at a doctors office. Effective, efficient and kind place. Would definitely recommend.Posted on Google

Maia Pinzur7 August 2024Dr. Vaca and his team are so amazing!! I received a rhinoplasty and chin implant and couldn’t be happier!

I felt very secure because he is confident in himself, which was a very important aspect when ultimately deciding which doctor I wanted to move forward with.

Dr. Fagien is simply the BEST and his staff is wonderful. I am so glad that I trusted my eyes to Dr. Fagien - he is truly an artist extraordinaire who gave me the natural look that I desired. He has a wonderful and caring personality as well, and he and his amazing team including Dani, Devina, Victoria, and Hannah (apologies if I am missing anyone) “held my hand” the entire journey and answered any and all questions, anytime that I asked. The surgery and recovery was exactly as explained with minimal discomfort. Even two weeks after the surgery I was hearing “you look great” and “were you on vacation?” from people and co-workers who didn’t know I had my eyelids done. 10 weeks after surgery, I am thrilled and the results will only keep improving as I heal completely. Thank you, Dr. Fagien and team - truly love the way I look and appreciate the excellent care that I received !!Posted on HealthgradesNina26 January 2025Dr. Fagien- the best plastic surgeon I had a lip filler treatment done with Dr. Fagien two months ago, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. I used to have downturned corners of my mouth and very thin lips, but now the corners are lifted, and my lips are fuller, beautifully shaped, and incredibly natural-looking. My facial expressions, speaking, and all movements are as normal as ever.I feel like my face looks more youthful and vibrant, and my self-confidence has significantly increased. Even those around me, who usually don’t approve of cosmetic treatments, have complimented my new lips and said they love how natural they look.Thank you so much, Dr. Fagien for giving me such beautifully shaped lips and a smile that I truly love!Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User10 September 2025Never a doubt I first worked with Dr. Fagien early in my career as an operating room nurse and knew then that if I ever needed cosmetic eye surgery, he would be the one I trusted. Thirty years later, after also working alongside his mentor, Dr. Fagien remained the only surgeon I felt completely comfortable choosing for my upper and lower blepharoplasty. His team is exemplary—professional, kind, and attentive—and their bedside manner put me at ease throughout the process.

Melanie Wantuck19 September 2020I have been a nurse at Northwestern Hospital for over 20 years, so I have seen many doctors come and go. I work in the PACU and recover patients after various surgeries. Plastic surgery is one of them. So about 2 years ago there is all this talk about this guy in plastics who is a true “prodigy”.... of course my curiosity got the best of me and I started asking around. Elbert Vaca...Dr. Elbert Vaca... the best surgeon anyone has come across in a very long time.... ( this talk is coming from well known (experienced) surgeons ) ... Over the next 2 years, I was able to recover Dr. Vaca’s patients after various types of plastic surgeries. And the results were dumbfounding....he was Incredible .....his results impeccable...honestly, “perfection” in its truest form... I have Personally seen him for Botox and filler.... his work is amazing. *People look like a better version of themselves, not fake or unrecognizable.* I am 48 years old and will travel to Florida to see Dr.Vaca when the time comes for me to get my face and neck lift... this will also include my upper and lower eyes. He is going to do some fat transfer into my faces as well.. ( Trend alert: this is the new filler ladies!!!).......... I want the world to know about Dr. Vaca because he is so gifted. This is an example of where “years of experience” need not be considered... he is a prodigy. He was born to do this and if you go to him... your life will change! I no longer have a fear of aging..... as long as he is around! That is also a gift.Posted on HealthgradesVlad20 February 2025The best results possible. Dr. Fagien was outstanding — attentive, charismatic, and fully dedicated to achieving the best possible results. He proactively and carefully addressed all potential concerns throughout my surgery journey. I’m beyond happy with the results and highly recommend him.Posted on Google
Beatriz Cuervo1 September 2025I was referred to Dr. Fagien by my dermatologist, Dr. Martha Viera, and I have had the best experience with him and his entire team. He is not only an outstanding professional but also an incredible human being. I have lived with a vascular condition in my eyes for more than 20 years. From the very first appointment, Dr. Fagien made it clear that he would only perform my surgery if my retina specialist, Dr. Janet Davis,, approved it. That level of professionalism and care gave me complete confidence in him. The surgery itself was complex due to my condition, but he performed it with excellence. What was already a very special procedure became even more meaningful under those circumstances. The results have been very positive. It has now been two months, and I am still in recovery, noticing improvements every week, with final results expected at six months. Throughout this journey, I have received invaluable support from his team, who have always ensured smooth communication between the doctor and me. I want to highlight the professionalism and kindness of Owni, Devina, Henry. Thanks to them And the other ones in his office, I have always felt cared for and received prompt answers from the doctor whenever I needed guidance. If you are considering eyelid or under-eye bag surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Fagien. He is, without a doubt, the best choice!Posted on HealthgradesEugenia Matos-Oliveira12 December 2019Dr. Fagien and his staff are very professional and they put me at ease from the very first appointment.

Judith Fernandez14 May 2022Still continues to be my favorite physicians office for the overall care and professionalism of all staff I encounter. Office continues to abide by recommendations regarding Covid which protects us both. I met some new staff this visit who are as committed to Dr,. Fagien’s practice as he is. My visit this time was more maintenance and lasted approximately 50 minutes. As usual, every line, and wrinkle was inspected and documented along with conversation regarding my perceived wants vs. what the physician felt I needed which is interestingly less. Actual prep and procedure time 30 mins, minimal discomfort, no down time and I left a happy more rested looking woman. I work hard, I play hard and enjoy taking this time for myself. I appreciate the skill and talent of healthcare professionals and a smooth operating medical office. Thanks Dr Fagien and team!Posted on HealthgradesVanessa C22 July 2020Beautiful office, lovely staff and a clear and thorough consultation with the Dr. Already feel confident in his skills!

There was absolutely no pain, the customer service from his staff and from the hospital he uses are extraordinary. If you are thinking about having your eyes done, Dr. Steven is on excellent choice. Also I have to mention that results are very natural.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User18 October 2025My Miracle Man! Dr. Fagien is well worth the wait! When it came to trusting somebody to doing my eyes, there was no other choice. He is the best of the best!!!! His work, and referral from patients and colleagues, speaks for itself. I had absolutely no reservations that I would have my eyes back the way they were, and not have them look fixed. He is caring, spends time explaining things to you, and goes beyond in every way. I can’t tell you how pleased I am!!!! Have no reservations about Dr. Fagien, he is truly and eye artist!!!Posted on Google

Kiara Maldonado20 February 2023Dr. Vaca is very patient and caring. There are other doctors who will rush the process and all they see is a dollar sign over your head. If you are looking for someone to take their time and truly value you as a patient of their practice, this is the doctor you need to see!! He has a sharp eye for perfection and is very honest and thorough with his work. 15/10 recommend!Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User22 June 2026Best Blepharoplasty Doctor I have been waiting to do my eye surgery for several years.

I tell him he has a special gift and I’m grateful that he shares it with us.Posted on Google

Andrea Quain2 June 2021Dr. Vaca is an amazing surgeon. He is so meticulous and detailed in his work. I had a BA done by him 3 weeks ago in May and it could not have gone smoother. Dr. Vaca is so sweet and guides you through the process with ease and understanding. I absolutely love my results and I am SO glad he was my surgeon. I will be a lifetime client of his & I have already referred him to family. If you are considering a plastic surgeon look no further. :)Posted on Google
yaminah lopez20 April 2021Dr. Vaca was very friendly, he makes you very comfortable and actually sits and talks with you. Most places make you feel rushed and unimportant. He took the time to explain things, and answer questions I had! I can not wait to have my procedure done !Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User18 February 2022I had upper eyelid blepharoplasty done less than two weeks ago. The whole experience has been wonderful. Dr. Fagien has a comforting bedside manner but more importantly he is an excellent surgeon, a perfectionist. The office staff is top notch and has been in touch with me every step of the way. My results are amazing but I had no doubt they would be due to Dr. Fagiens exceptional skills in his field. I am so thankful for all he has done for me and I recommend him to anyone considering having this procedure. The only regret I have is not doing this sooner! Thank you Dr. Fagien!Posted on Google

He is simply the bestPosted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User26 September 2023Dr. Fagien and staff are the best!
