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

Yolanda Martinez8 November 2022I’ll never tire of saying what a gentleman Dr. Fagien is, but most important, what an outstanding, awesome doctor he is. When I moved to this area some years ago I asked another Doctor to recommend me an Oculoplastic Surgeon, and without hesitation he said, “Steve Fagien, he is the best of the best, and I trust him blindly”. He was right 101%.Posted on Google

Gwen Hudson12 April 2018I love Dr Fagien. He did my eyes ten years ago. They still look awesome. I have spoken to many professionals and his peers and they give him stellar reviews. He is very passionate and meticulous about his patients and work. I highy recommend this handsome and charming doctor. I recently visited with him and will be returning for treatment soon! He is very kind and thorough!Posted on Healthgrades

Dr. 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 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 HealthgradesJoanne6 September 2021We are all concerned with Covid and Dr. Fagien and his staff make me feel comfortable and safe because they make every effort to protect patients. The services they provide lift my spirits while providing them with safety. Dr. Fagien is the BEST!Posted on Google
Cathy Daly30 January 2024From the first call, his office staff has been friendly and organized. They have a few main people who are always available and on top of your progress. You can get ahold of them at any time if you have a question. Appointments were always right on time with no wait. I always look forward to my office visits, too bad I'm healing so fast. As far as Dr. Vaga and Dr. Faigen, all I can say is that there is a reason that they are the top people to see in the US. They are friendly, kind, involved and incredibly skilled. I cannot recommend his office enough for quality care. I also wanted to say that the surgery center was top notch. I was comfortable and the medical team were incredible. I would give more stars if I had the option.Posted on Healthgrades

bob S10 December 2024Recently had some under eye surgery performed by Dr. Steven Fagien. My Dermatologist had recommended him and after a thorough consultation chose him as he specializes in only eye surgery. He has been performing these surgeries for many years and aside from his knowledge and great personality he did an amazing job. The difference was dramatic and I have received so many compliments since the surgery . After the procedure, much to my surprise, I only had slight discomfort. He is amazing. Thanks Dr Fagien. His staff is incredible also especially Hanna Gross and Danny Pico. Thank you both. He is the best!! Bob S.Posted on Healthgrades
Healthgrades User24 February 2025Highly 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.Posted on Google

Tara H16 March 2021Dr Vaca is patient, thorough and meticulous in his work. I had asked to “backfill” the volume that I had lost over the years in my lips. He listened to what I wanted and gave valuable suggestions. He then allowed me the time to make my decision and I am more than pleased with my results.Posted on HealthgradesTheresa Hsu in Parkland, FL26 May 2018Dr Fagien is a world renowned highly skilled ocular plastic surgeon, author and educator. I had a cutting-edge procedure performed by him 24 years ago that most, more experienced, ocular plastic surgeons could not perform at that time. I continue to see Dr. Fagien on a regular basis for Botox and fillers and would not trust anyone else. His office is impeccable and his staff is extremely professional and friendly.

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 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 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

A L30 July 2023I had upper and lower eyelid surgery with Dr. Fagien in March. This was the first cosmetic surgery I have ever had. It took me about 5 years to make the decision to do it and then another year to find the right surgeon for me. Someone told me that when you meet the right doctor for you it’s like an “aha” moment and that’s how I felt when I had my first consultation. He was very pleasant and patient and addressed all my concerns without being dismissive. To be honest, I was extremely nervous the day of surgery but it helped that everyone at the surgery facility was attentive and very caring. I am extremely thankful and fortunate that Dr. Fagien did my surgery. He and his amazing staff, Victoria, Dani and Devina, made themselves accessible by phone/email, did follow-ups on any issues that I had post surgery. I never felt worried about the care I received and if I had any concern, no matter how trivial or serious, it was addressed. My appointments never felt rushed. Due to Dr. Fagien’s expertise and skillful hands, my expectations were met - my eyes feel and look great and natural. I can’t express enough thanks to Dr. Fagien and his staff for giving me the care I needed. They are indeed the best!Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User22 July 2021Traveled from Nashville for blepharoplasty with Dr. Fagien, and my experience has been outstanding.

Carol Calling3 September 2025“An absolutely flawless, natural transformation — and some honest tips for your journey!” I had a face and neck lift 12 weeks ago with Dr. Vaca, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, he was calm, professional, and a true perfectionist — but in the best way possible. His approach is meticulous yet subtle, delivering a natural, balanced outcome that miraculously looks completely real. Everyone tells me I look fresh and younger because the past few years approaching 50 I began quickly developing pre-mature "creppy" sagging skin on my cheeks, jawline, and neck) that needed to be revised, but without looking pulled or "fixed". What I received from Dr Vaca is like a natural (major) glow-up that no one can put their finger on! My sons, who are in their twenties, saw me four weeks post-op and had zero clue (what do boys notice anyway?!). My husband, being equally picky, said there are no negative signs of the surgery (unless you raise my hair up in the back and see the fresh pink scars). So no suspicious onlookers other than the fact that my face looks fresh and beautiful and I often catch my husband looking at my face deeply and following up with a heart-melting compliment about how amazing I look and what a great decision it was (he was initially against the idea of me doing surgery). I was blessed with the result I wanted: to look naturally much fresher, but not “done.” Dr. Vaca also did very tiny fat transfers (1.5 volume or less) in a few areas of my face, and his precision is unreal. I still have a few natural surface lines on my lower cheeks, just as he said I would, but I’m 50 years old and 90% of the crepe and wrinkles I had there are gone! The skin isn’t tight or stretched, nor does it sag — it’s just right. If I were to count, there were at least 50 lines on my cheeks and now there are pretty much zero. But no pulling or plumping whatsoever! Now, a few honest tips: my husband stayed with me every minute the first three days after surgery, which I highly recommend. Everyone warns you about feeling doubts or regrets in those first 48 hours, and they’re not joking! Especially if you have a paranoid reaction to whatever trippy opioid they put in the IV drip post surgery. LOL ... Don’t be alone—you need a loving “slave” to take care of you. Then, like magic, by day four, the emotional shock fades and you start feeling wonderful about the ordeal. Also, I noticed something funny: in those first few days (day 1 to 4), all face-lift patients look eerily similar and unrecognizable from the side-view — kind of like how all people with Down syndrome have specific shared facial features with each other. I think that was comforting for me, seeing all previous ladies with the same face. But by day 7, you’re unmistakably yourself again, just with a little bruising. In summary, I look soooo much better!!! And there’s a million-to-one chance anyone would guess I had surgery on my face or neck because all is so perfectly balanced and healed so quickly (just strategically styling my ponytails). 😜 I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a talented surgeon. Even great doctors can have an off day, but Dr. Vaca delivered an incredible, natural result that I’m so proud of. If you want a refresh that truly respects your natural beauty, he’s your guy.Posted on HealthgradesPam R11 August 2022Best eyelid surgeon!

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.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User10 September 2023Amazing!!! I have had several cosmetic procedures done over my 50 years of aging. I am very conservative and well researched. I consulted several top oculoplastic surgeons before choosing Dr. Fagien to perform my bletharoplasty.Dr. Fagien's consultation was informative and very reassuring. The result was perfect. No scar, no mistakes, no sign of any work done. THIS DOCTOR IS INCREDIBLY TALENTED. If you live in Florida go see him, if you live anywhere else, get on a plane and go see him it's worth it.Posted on Google

William Cash1 March 2020Dr.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 CashPosted on HealthgradesAlexia Feghali30 October 2020Loved my experience with Dr. Fagien. His staff was very helpful and welcoming .Will be coming back in no time!Posted on Google
Ferne Toccin24 August 2023Dr Fagien is a fabulous doctor. I can"t say enough about his talents, his kindness and his humor, He took droopy eyes and made them look beautiful again. No more droop. No pain! He worked with Dr Vaca, and he did a temporal brow lift. He was wonderful as well. The office staff is kind and welcoming and addresses all by their name. I can't say enough about these doctors' skills and I will return for touch ups over the years!Posted on Google
Lyubov Vayner23 May 2024I was extremely hesitant in choosing a doctor in Florida, since I had an established physician and team in Beverly Hills. When travel became impractical, I searched for a local Physician for my cosmetic care. My first appointment with Dr. Vaca put my anxiety at ease. From beginning to end, he listened to me, paying meticulous attention to my features and establishing balance where i did not even realize was needed. Thank you so much, Dr. Vaca for listening to and really hearing your patients. I feel my best under your care, see you soon!Posted on Google
Diane Samuelson3 October 2020I highly recommend Dr Vaca! He explains everything really well, and made me feel very comfortable prior to my procedure. The office staff is also very warm and friendly (I even received a follow up call to make sure I was doing ok the following day). The overall experience was pleasant and I’m very happy with my results.Posted on HealthgradesKristin Padowitz19 December 2024Look 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.Posted on HealthgradesHappy woman!15 April 2022Excellent experienced!!!

Cindy Grafman31 October 2018The BEST !!!!! I wouldn't let anyone BUT Dr. Fagien touch me.. ! He's gentle, kind & treats his staff like family.. 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....Posted on Google
Deborah Parnell6 September 2020My experience with Dr. Vaca was amazing. His presentation is warm , knowledgeable and sincere. I had stomach FAT that wouldn't go away. Dr. Vaca evaluated my abdomen and due to my previous C sections recommended abdominalplasty. I LOOK GREAT now. I asked him about the sagging jawline (jowls) and wanted a quick fix. He assessed the face and recommended a modified face lift procedure. Because of his proven honesty and talent, I agreed and I cannot be HAPPIER. He is a truly talented and humble surgeon. Never thought I would use those two adjectives in one sentence about a surgeon, but that's the magic of Dr. Vaca. As a RN whose specialty s Operating Room nursing, I have worked with many surgeons. Dr. Vaca is an exceptional surgeon. That is my personal AND professional opinion.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User2 June 2018Excellent! Awesome staff. Very supportive and skilled. Once you meet this doctor and his staff you won’t want to go anywhere else.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User6 December 2019I have been going to Dr. Fagien For cheek filler for several years. He does such an excellent job that I come from out of state for the appointment.Posted on Google
Suzette Botero18 October 2020Dr. Fagien is the best of the best! The only person I trust when it comes to eye surgery and injectables. My mother’s eyes look great and my injectables super natural! Love his professionalism, and his staff is SUPERB!Posted on Google
Juan Velasquez25 February 2021I would encourage anyone seeking attention to detail, perfectionism and tact to see Dr. Vaca. The process from beginning to end was smooth, at ease, well informed and last but most importantly exquisitely executed. I’ll continue to visit his practice and refer him to anyone I know.
