Highly Recommend Last month I had surgery with both Dr. Fagien and Dr. Vaca. My entire experience with Dr. Fagien, Dr. Vaca and their office was fantastic. My initial consultation was informative. Drs. Fagien and Vaca listened to my concerns, did an assessment, and gave me their recommendations. They explained everything clearly and answered all of my questions. They took their time. I’ve never felt rushed at any of my appointments. My surgery went wonderfully. I felt safe and well cared for throughout. My recovery went as expected and I am completely thrilled with my results. My follow up care has been great. Appointments are on time. The physicians are attentive and truly take pride in their work. Everyone in the office is friendly and professional. The office itself is beautiful. Drs. Fagien and Vaca were highly recommended to me by several of my colleagues who work in healthcare, and I certainly agree with those recommendations. I highly recommend.

Excellence Having done some research and a few consultations, I chose Dr Vaca for my upper blepharoplasty. He is incredibly thorough, thoughtful and kind, exceptional in all aspects from the first consultation all the way through recovery. I am so happy with the results and very grateful for his brilliance, talent and expertise. If you are looking for excellence he is, hands down, the one.

Great staff, great results I cannot recommend Dr Fagien highly enough. He explained the procedure and it went exactly as planned. Pain was minimal, a bit of itching from the stitches. I had my upper eyelids done Monday and look quite presentable Friday- the stitches are the only giveaway. Best of all, I look rested, not over-pulled.

The whole experience was very comforting, caring and inspired confidence. I considered getting my eyes done for a long time but when I was finally ready Dr. Fagien and his stuff made this process wonderful. My results are incredible and I would recommend this practice to everyone who considers any kind of plastic eye surgery.

I 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.

My 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!!!

A year and a half later—and I couldn’t be happier! Thank you, Dr. Fagien! … After having to look at myself in Zoom reflections for more than a year, I knew it was time to do something. I was told by a Miami physician whose professional opinion I value more than I can say, that Dr. Fagien is the ONLY doctor to see. Dr. Fagien and his staff are incomparable. He is kind, warm, and patient. The results of my surgery are beautiful and natural. He took at least ten years of sagging stress from my eyes with an upper/lower transconj blepharoplasty. I'm grateful and so happy that I don't look sad anymore. Truly, he is the best!

If 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!

Dr. Vaca and his team are so amazing!! I received a rhinoplasty and chin implant and couldn’t be happier! I healed so well and was checked up on multiple times during recovery. Dr. Vaca understood my wants and concerns with the surgery and was with me every step of the way. My results have truly changed my life and I’m so happy with my decision choosing Dr. Vaca. 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. I am 2 months post op and could not have asked for better results. I received exactly what I asked for and am over the moon! A big thank you to Dr. Vaca and his team!!

Fantastic office experience! After my first visit everyone in the office new my name and made me feel welcome. Dr. Vaca spent time explaining his recommendations and procedures thoroughly and answered the many questions that I had. One week out, without ever having any pain or discomfort, albeit swelling and some bruising I can already see my amazing results.

Exceptional Eyelid Surgery-life changing results! I cannot recommend Dr.Fagien enough for my upper and lower eyelid surgery. From the initial consultation to post op care, Dr Fagien and their team were professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. Their expertise and attention to detail put me at ease, and the results have exceeded my expectations my eyes look natural refreshed youthful, with minimal scarring and a smooth recovery. What sets Dr. Fagien apart is his unique and personalized technique to detail in my procedure . The entire staff was also welcoming and supportive throughout the process. If you’re considering eyelid surgery, trust Dr. Fagien you’re in the best hands! Thank you for giving me renewed confidence and 30 years of my youth back .

So far I have loved my experience with Dr. Vaca. The consultation was amazing, and I felt very comfortable with him. Last week was my surgery, and so far, I feel awesome! I went in thinking I was going to be in so much pain after the surgery, but I was completely wrong (everyone is different). The day of the surgery I was a little nervous, but Dr. Vaca and everyone on his staff made me feel well taken care of. He is an absolutely amazing doctor.! Super happy and excited about my results, In only one week.

Never 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. I am absolutely ecstatic with my results, though I never doubted that would be the case with Dr. Fagien.

Above 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.

It's a beautiful office with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Dr. Fagien has an excellent manner, is very experienced, and gave me his honest opinion of my situation. He actually discouraged me from having upper eyelid surgery, saying that the result would not be what I said I hoped for, but would provide only minimal improvement.

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. :)

Seconds later Dr. Fagien called me to meet him at the office and fix the problem. My Fiancé is a surgeon as well and could not have been more impressed with his perfect stitches and attention to detail. Thank you for everything Dr. Fagien, Devina , & Olivia I will definitely be recommending your office.

The results of their expertise was matched by the Boca Raton Surgical outpatient staff. My expectations were exceeded! Dr. Fagien was recommended by 2 of his patients who were treated by him in the past. Plus! His participation,involvement and leadership in philanthropic commitments are exemplary to what ‘the practice of medicine ‘ should be all about! Thank you.

Amazing is an understatement …… Dr. Fagien is one of those people from the start knows what is best for you and then explains the process to get there - imagine in healthcare in 2023 a doctor who cares? Well you don’t need to look further because not only does he care he cares deeply and so does his wonderful, kind, gentle and loving staff. I am just so happy with my procedure, came out of state and the process was made so very simple for me to understand and Trust. Don’t even consider anyone else and I have said the same to my sister who commentates on TV - when or if you want to have your eyes reviewed or surgery performed you are in the right hands - I have never seen such talent (if ever). Thank you sounds like not enough to Dr. Fagien and his staff!!!!!

Dr.faigan restored years of bad choices I had .made...Chronic Alcoholism and Drug abuse...Now at 49yrs old and a devout Christian I had to come to realize I needed to be freshened up...Nothing to drastic just little filler here and there with some botox and I must say first visit was beyond my exspectations... Dr.faigan made it very clear that this would be a process not an over night fix...So after 3 visits I look 10 years younger....For any one considering Dr.faigan I would say this is the doctor you want. He's honest caring and his staff are all sweethearts...My first visit i told him what i wanted and the next 2 visits i asked that he decided what he thought....You must decide your buget meaning how much can you afford as I did research prior to visit to see what things cost today...I was surprised on my check out that hes quite fair and reasonable on his work....Amazing results.....Felt as if I was in Gods hands the whole time...Ladies look him up for yourself.....He teaches and has written several books ...Dr.Faigan thank you and God Bless you and your Staff.....Sincerely Dori Cash

Dr. 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!

Amazing Professional Office Dr. Fagien is truly a Professional Oculoplastic Surgeon who is very compassionate and thoughtful of your concerns. He gives his full attention to you and puts you at ease, leaving you with full confidence that everything will be 100% better. 2 weeks ago, I had upper and lower Blepharopalsty and so far I'm very super happy at the results. A big shoutout to his staff.. all are very friendly, well trained and most of all compassionate. Dani, his assistant is very kind and truly cares and takes the time to answer any of your concerns. I absolutely highly recommend Dr Fagien and his team!

Look no further! Dr. Fagien is the best of the best. I am a very high maintenance patient, extremely nervous and anxious. Dr. Fagien and his staff were incredibly caring and comforting. Dr. Fagien’s bedside manner helped me feel relaxed and gave me the knowledge that I had picked the right doctor for the job.

Dr. Fagien performed upper and lower eye lid surgery on me and I am very pleased with the results. I look 10 years younger. It has definitely boosted my confidence. Dr. Fagien is very detail oriented and precise in his approach. You can’t even tell that I had surgery. You can tell that Dr. Fagien loves what he does because it shows in his workmanship. His team is just as dedicated as he his. They were all so kind and very helpful. I would without hesitation do this all over again with Dr. Fagien and his team. Hats off to you all! 👏🏽👏🏽

My whole experience was wonderful! My dermatologist had recommended Dr Fagien for my eyes surgery, but I was a little hesitant after hearing so bad stories about other doctors. One year ago I finally decided to take the chance and today I thank myself for doing it! My eyes look so good yet so natural that most of my friends didn't notice about a surgery! They just say I look so young and pretty! Dr Fagien is very kind and extremely good professional! He took care of me all the way, he kindly answered all my doubts and concerns and helped me out through the whole process. Also his team, all the staff at his offices are really nice and knowledgeable. I recommend this doctor to anyone who wants their eyes to look amazing!

I was extremely impressed with Dr Fagien and his office staff. I went in for a consultation with Dr Fagien to have my tear troughs injected. He told me I was not a good candidate and I would not achieve the look I desired. I asked him about other options and he said in the future to come and see him but that I wasn’t ready for anything yet. His honesty and professionalism is amazing! When it is time I will definitely return to see Dr Fagien.

Dr. Fagien is a world class gifted surgeon. He is conservative, meticulous, and has an artistic eye. He approaches each patient individually resulting in procedures that enhance your natural features. I would not let any other doctor touch my face as I couldn’t be happier with my results. My friends that have gone to him feel the same. I trust and highly recommend him.

Dr 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.

I choose Dr. Steven Fagien with all the trusty. Recently, my Botox which I had on my forehead turned out very well done. It’s made me so happy overall... And Even that was the first Botox in my entire 35 years. It was full of concern. But now , I’m considered to get more in another area , of course! I will pick Dr. Steven Fagien !!

Dr Fagien is a true artist. I have been seeing him for several years now and could not be any happier with the results and the relationship. He is great at minimizing pain and bruising during and following injections. He never pressures unnecessary procedures. The staff is delightful, and they most obviously like the doctor as well. Could not ask for better. Don’t look for bargains with your face!

I 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!

As a plastic surgeon I knew exactly who to trust for my recent eyelid surgery. Dr Fagien is a talented, skillful and detail-oriented surgeon who did a beautiful blepharoplasty for me. His office staff are very responsive and helpful, as are his operating room team. I highly, highly recommend Dr Fagien - he is truly a "surgeon's surgeon".

I 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!

I could not be more pleased with my results from Dr. Vaca. From the first moment you step into the beautiful suite you are greeted warmly by the receptionist and wait only mere minutes before being escorted to a consultation room. Dr. Vaca’s gentle and kind demeanor make the consultation effortless. After assessing your concerns Dr. Vaca will show you his previous work so that you may see beautiful results from other patients. His aesthetic compliments and enhances your natural beauty without overdoing it. He is careful in his assessments and is very honest with how he would proceed in correcting your concerns. Not only is his demeanor gentle, but his hands are as well, causing no pain throughout the entire process. I am so happy and lucky to have found such a wonderful surgeon!

Eye Surgery Dr Fagien and his team are the best. I got a fantastic result with my eyelid surgery and it was relatively painless. I was at my office 48 hours after surgery. Everything went exactly as planned and Dr Fagien exceeded my expectations in every way. He is for sure the “Eye Guy”.

He "listens" to what & how you want a procedure unlike so many other plastic surgeon's.... Staff is very professional & caring ... I highly recommend Dr.Steven Fagien for any procedure... That is how he gets his impeccable reputation....
