I am one of the most qualified patients to recommend Dr. Elbert Vaca, as I had multiple surgeries with him in 2021. What began with one surgery ended with three (TT, neck/face lift and breast reduction), as each surgery over-exceeded my expectations. He's an exceptional plastic surgeon, but also a kind and caring person. During office consultations, Dr. Vaca was patient and generous with his time, addressing my many questions and concerns. He thoroughly prepares his patients for surgery as he wants them to have a successful outcome. I never doubted his recommendations and completely trusted his honest opinion. I was very happy with both the surgery and post-op recovery, as I was well prepared and felt great! I could not have asked for a better surgeon, as he delivers natural looking results. He's highly trained and very proud of his work. I recommend Dr. Elbert Vaca enthusiastically and without reservation.Posted on Healthgrades

Bonnie Osher20 July 2021Dr. Fagien is a master and he is a doctor’s doctor. Doctors go to Dr. Fagien because they know he is the the best in his field. He is honest and conservative and no one will look strange if Dr. Fagien does your treatment. He is very successful and he enjoys making everyone happy. You will get an honest opinion and he won’t do anything that will make you look freaky. I do my homework and check out doctors by getting opinions from other doctors in Florida and also other areas of the country. Steve Fagien is the only doctor to use. He takes his time and makes sure his procedures do not hurt. He and his staff are kind, caring and very professional. I am not related to the doctor and this is my first endorsement I have ever written but Dr. Fagien is truly special. The only difficulty is in spelling his name.Posted on HealthgradesFt Lauderdale, FL3 May 2017Dr. Fagien is one of the best doctors in south florida for eyelid surgery and botox and filler. He has a great personality and makes you feel confident and comfortable. The eye lid surgery took at least 5 years off and the botox and filler is the best I have had and I have been to several others. The staff is also amazing, efficient and helpful. I am not the only one that feels this way about him. Many people I know also agree Dr Fagien and his staff are the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Posted on Google

Highly recommend him to anyone looking for anything from simple to very complex!!Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User13 November 2020Office immaculate and staff extremely friendly and knowledgeable! Spent lots of time to listen to my concerns and what procedures I had questions about.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User3 March 2026Rhinoplasty and bilateral browlift I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Vaca. I recently went to Dr. Vaca for a rhinoplasty and browlift and I could not be happier with the results! There is no other surgeon I’d trust with any plastic surgery especially my nose. Dr. Vaca listened to what I wanted to change and I trusted his opinion on what he thought would look best for my specific features. He will always tell me when he thinks I don’t need something done and when he thinks something will look unnatural. I had minimal bruising, swelling, or scarring after my surgery and I attribute that to Dr. Vaca’s expertise as a surgeon. He is calm and confident which always made me feel at ease. Dr. Vaca and his staff truly care about their patients and take the time to make sure you are comfortable throughout the entire surgery and recovery process. Any questions or concerns I had both before surgery and months later they made sure to answer and had solutions for. Thank you so much to Dr. Vaca and staff!Posted on Google
Diana Murdock1 June 2018It'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.

Dr Fagien’s work is amazing!Posted on HealthgradesAnonymous in Boynton Beach10 September 2022“Simply the Best!” I’m pleased to have an opportunity to share my experience with Dr. Steven Faigien. I’m an 81 year old woman who’s had 3 eyelid surgeries in the past. Because of this I was anxious about how I would heal. Dr. Fagien assured me that since I am in good health , there should be no problems. He proceeded to tell me what would be the best result for me. He was absolutely right! I had my surgery a few days ago and am healing quickly and I love the way my eyes look. I would be remiss in sharing my experience with Dr. Fagien if I didn’t mention his wonderful and caring staff. They are always kind and very helpful. Last, but definitely not least, is Dr. Fagien himself. He is very personable and quickly put me at ease. He is easy to talk to and has a great smile and sense of humor. I am truly humbled by his expertise and his caring for his patients. He is “Simply the Best!”Posted on Google

Hilda Castellanos24 May 2022What a positive experience! My whole experience with Dr. Vaca and his staff has been exceptional. Dr Vaca spent as much time as I needed during my consult to make sure I had answers to all of my questions. I felt so content that I cancelled my other consults - I knew Dr Vaca was the one. I am so very happy with the results of my mommy makeover procedure. My self esteem has enhanced ten fold! Not only does Dr Vaca have great bedside manners, but he also possesses extremely impeccable talented, artistically gifted and he is also a perfectionist, he was able to keep my tattoos aligned from my tummy tuck to my breast augmentation /lift with no pain afterwards & No scars. Dr Vaca left me absolutely speechless I feel so honored that he worked on me with his artistry .I will truly be a loyal life time patient to him.He is truly a prodigy, Dr.Vaca was born to do this!!Posted on Google
Taylor M.28 July 2023I am OBSESSED with my results and I cannot stop looking in the mirror! Dr. Fagien is the best in the entire facial aesthetics industry, hands down. I am SO HAPPY with the absolute transformation of my face that he was able to accomplish using just botox and filler. He has made my face completely symmetrical and balanced. I now have a refreshed, youthful, and very NATURAL look. I have always been very picky about only going to excellent doctors. But Dr. Fagien just blows everyone else out of the water. His expertise and techniques are unparalleled. I have never before had a doctor spend so much time and pay such attention to detail during my appointment. He very thoroughly studied the individual intricacies of my face and my unique musculature shapes. He then applies the most unbelievably precise technique in performing his injections… I have just never before seen any doctor be so meticulously precise. The results are OUTSTANDING. I had always heard all the buzz about Doctor Fagien and how people travel from all over the country to see him. But what finally had me picking up the phone was when I saw first-hand the miraculous transformation that he performed on a friend of mine earlier this year when he did her upper/ lower eyelid surgery. I was completely blown away....Dr. Fagien is truly the king of facial aesthetics. Oh and not to mention….His staff is also wonderful. They are friendly, attentive and always right “on the ball”.Posted on Google
Joanne Barone11 March 2026Dr Fagien is clearly the expert in his field. I had under eye bags which can be challenging. I am extremely pleased with the procedure; the results are very natural.

Working in this industry for many years he is definitely one of the best out there. I really enjoyed his attention to detail and making sure I was comfortable.

Highly recommended to anyone in the South Florida area.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User5 September 2022I hv not had anything done yet. My visit was very nice and pleasant.

Jana D'Agostino16 September 2021Dr Fagien and his staff are amazing. His office is very clean and beautiful. He truly listens and gives his honest opinion about what you need. I have been coming to him for Botox and fillers in my forehead for over 2 years and he is a true artist and pays close attention to details. After going to multiple doctors before him and not having the results I wanted, he came highly recommended. He was the only doctor that was honest and said that Botox alone would not help my deep lines in my forehead. He goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with your results. I will be his patient for life.Posted on Google

Make an appointment, I can guarantee you will be happy you did.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User26 January 2020He and his staff could not have been more patient and thorough in explaining the procedures and follow up.Posted on HealthgradesDC3 November 2021Dr. Vaca is an Outstanding surgeon and a caring, well trained physician. He communicates well, & is extraordinarily patient and considerate. After reading several reviews from other surgeons and nurses with whom he worked during his training, I decided to choose him as my plastic surgeon. They had described as a prodigy and highly skilled in terms of both technique and artistry. I agree! I am beyond thrilled with my results. He performed abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with flank liposuction. The results after 4 months are way beyond my expectations. I am 59, two adult children and had abdominal liposuction 15 years ago. During those 15 years, my tummy became lumpy and uneven due to age & changing hormones etc... Dr. Vaca skillfully used a variety of modern techniques to achieve a FLAT tummy. It looks incredible and my belly button looks like it did 30 years ago! I recommend him to all my friends seeking plastic surgery advice. I will use him again in future - I 100% recommended!!!Posted on Google

Homegirl40 at gmail com Do i need this account15 January 2020Went for a consultation. Very Professional and knowledgeable. Clean office. Would recommend highly. Will use their services when time is right.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User11 September 2025Dr. Vaca If you are reading this review, chances are you are searching for a qualified cosmetic surgeon. My search began in January of 2025. I live in Coral Gables, FL and had full consultations with three highly recommended surgeons within a few miles of my home. While I was certain that all of these doctors could satisfactorily get the job done, I left each consultation feeling like something was missing. I simply could not make a decision. My continued research led me to Dr. Vaca in Boca Raton and after reading his credentials and reviews, I scheduled a consultation. At the end of this lengthy, informative, enjoyable meeting I knew that my search was finally over. I had found my surgeon and my indecision was replaced with certainty and excitement. I have now experienced two surgeries with Dr. Vaca and I am very happy! Everyone who works with him is professional and supportive. If you are searching for a cosmetic surgeon, schedule a consultation with Dr. Vaca…find what you have been missing.Posted on Google

Susan V28 July 2022Dr. Fagien is one of the most ethical plastic surgeons I have ever met. I would highly recommend him.

martha sanchez10 August 2018Dr Fagien is very knowledgeable and honest. We are unable to perform the surgery we wanted because it would not give the results we were looking for and he was up front about it. We went to two others surgeons before him and they both recommended the surgery. Which proves that he is honest not in it just for the money.Posted on Google

Azul Iglesias3 March 2026From the very first consultation, I knew I was in the right place. Instead of pointing out flaws like many surgeons do, he asked me one simple and powerful question, “What bothers you when you look in the mirror?” That approach alone speaks volumes about who he is. He promotes beauty in a healthy and balanced way, rooted in confidence and self acceptance, not insecurity. His team is exceptional. Every detail, every visit, and every interaction made me feel cared for and respected. I felt amazing from day one through every follow up appointment. The procedure itself was fast and smooth, something I had wanted to do for a long time, and I truly felt I was in the best hands possible. What impacted me the most happened after surgery. Over the weekend, I noticed a small tear mixed with blood and got really scared. I called the office and within ten minutes he personally called me back. Not an assistant. The doctor himself. On a weekend. That level of humanity is rare. He explained calmly what was happening and what to expect next, and everything unfolded exactly as he said it would. That gave me so much peace. He is not only an incredibly skilled surgeon, he is human, compassionate, and deeply committed to his patients. He makes you feel safe, respected, and truly taken care of. I recommend him one million times over. 🤍Posted on Google

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 Google
Alicia Kalvin29 April 2021Dr Fagien and his team are the best! I had my upper eyes done in August 2020, they turned out terrific and the doctor’s office called me every day for a week to check on me and see how I was healing after my surgery. I’m so glad I made this decision and I highly recommend Dr. Fagien for anyone who wants beautiful youthful eyes.Posted on Google

Gabrielle Sacheli15 March 2024Dr. Vaca is by far the best in South Florida. His attention to detail and honesty is what keeps me coming back. I would highly recommend him and his entire office staff, they are wonderful.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. I am absolutely ecstatic with my results, though I never doubted that would be the case with Dr. Fagien.Posted on Google
Brenda Mussman25 April 2022Dr. Fagien was very knowledgeable & considerate of my concerns.. We spoke about the eye procedure I was considering and he reassured me that it was an easy procedure. He also suggested another eye procedure to think about to be done at the same time.There was no pressure to decide anything that day.Posted on Google
Denise Levin11 January 2019Everyone was friendly and professional. All aspects of the treatment were explained. The staff has been great about follow up visits, and Dr. Fagien is great.Posted on HealthgradesSylvia17 July 2019Dr Fagien is a miracle plastic surgeon. He gave me my eyes back. He gave me my life back. I am forever grateful. I couldn't even go out without sunglasses to cover my how my eyes looked. He takes his time, is extremely knowledgeable and professional and creates miracles when others couldn't. His staff is very knowledgeable and caring. His appointments are always on time. Amber was super sweet and even calmed me down on day of procedure. Dr Fagien cares about his patients and I owe him so much. I am more than happy with my results. Better than I expected.Posted on HealthgradesB Glazer17 April 2021From the lovely waiting room till my last visit I’ve enjoyed great care. The front desk nurses are smart and welcoming.

Lana23 June 2019I had consulted other plastic surgeon who said I need a brow lift . But dr. Fagien suggested just a minor upper lid skin removal. I scheduled my procedure. That was 6 years ago . I could not be happier. He is perfectionist . I returned for fillers and Botox when was in town. And have to say results were fantastic. I highly recommend dr. Fagien.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User8 December 2020Dr. Faigen is amazing. He has the patience of a saint and I couldn’t be happier. This was not my first experience with injections and fillers, but it was definitely the best.
