I 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.Posted on Healthgrades

Facelift De. Vaca is meticulous and talented but also very kind. A combination not always found in surgeons. My facelift was only a week ago but it’s looking great already. The whole office is great!Posted on Google
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 Google
Mary Daniels17 December 2021I have been seeing Dr. Fagien for approximately 12 years for fillers. He has helped me avoid the deep Marionette lines around my mouth area. Dr. Fagien graciously listens to my woes about NOT wanting to go through surgery and, in my opinion, helps me maintain a natural appearance.Posted on Healthgrades
Healthgrades User8 August 2021My experience with Dr. Vaca was top notch, he is very professional and very knowledgeable in his craft.

Andrés K3 November 2023The best. No question about it Doc and staff extremely professional and nice . Results are amazing . I did my eyelids .Do your research . He is the bestPosted on HealthgradesP V29 August 2022Love my new breasts! Hands down the best Plastic Surgeon I have come to know in my search for someone to fix my breasts. After breast feeding my children and dealing with asymmetrical breasts my whole life, I set out to find a surgeon to help me feel revitalized. I interviewed many but Dr. Vaca checked all the boxes. He has an elite academic pedigree. He carries himself with a reassuring confidence yet is somehow approachable and nice. I could go on but the results speak for themselves. The meticulous attention to detail in his plan and execution is superb. The size, positioning and symmetry between my breasts couldn't be more perfect. Dr. Vaca is a true artist and gentleman and I recommend him without hesitation.Posted on Google

B P30 December 2021I 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 HealthgradesVanessa C22 July 2020Beautiful office, lovely staff and a clear and thorough consultation with the Dr. Already feel confident in his skills! Definitely going to proceed with procedure.Posted on Healthgrades

Kendal & Sasha26 July 2021Dr. Fagien was extremely professional, I met with him regarding under eye fillers that I wanted to do. He was surprisingly honest and did not recommend I do this procedure as he did not think it would give me the results I wanted. He took the time to go through what the likely outcome would look like, showing images etc. I would 100% recommend his services as he clearly will not give advise on the basis of filling his pockets, but rather his client's genuine interests. While I did not leave with fillers, I did leave with a better understanding and knowledge of my structure and options available to me.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
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

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
Anonymous 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

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 Google

He is in a league of his own. He dedicate the time to perfect every surgery. He listens, cares, and has an innate ability to understand understand every patient’s wish, and turns those wishes into a reality. I recently underwent an upper and lower blepharoplasty. I am a perfectionist, and even I am amazed at how this master surgeon opened up my eyes to look 10 to 15 years younger in a most natural way. Dr. Fagien, is very kind and compassionate. Is it any wonder that his office staff are caring unprofessional? They handled all my needs, including following through all medication refills.

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

Megan E McNally22 January 20255 stars is not enough for Dr. Vaca. I found him by way of Dr. Fagien but needed more than an upper bleph (brow lift also) so went with Dr. Vaca. From the moment I met him in my consult I just thought he was so kind and knowledgeable. I felt safe with him and his work on Instagram was just beautiful. He kept nailing the brow lift and upper blephs and most importantly each woman just looked so natural like they didn’t have anything done. I had my surgery last week and have felt so well cared for. My results are so beautiful! I still feel like me! My dermatologist here in Miami asked for all of his info bc she couldn’t believe how beautiful it looks. Who knows what plastic surgery I will consider in the future as but if I do I know that I will trust Dr. Vaca. He’s a star!!!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 Healthgrades

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
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 Google
Tirso San Jose11 August 2021Dr. Fagien and his entire team were amazing! From the moment you contact them for an initial consultation to post surgery, Dr. Fagien and team were courteous, on time, and professional. Dr. Fagien never once over sold his services and offered only those that specifically pertained to my situation. Also, worthy of mentioning is the Eye Institute where the procedure was actually performed. The staff there from the intake nurse to the one who wheeled me out after surgery ALL were extremely kind and sensitive. I highly recommend Dr. Fagien and his teamPosted on Google

Very particular and deliberate with his approach, pre-op instructions, surgical facility and anesthesiologists, his surgical technique is superb ( I am a doctor I know). My eyes look amazing! Today is less than 24 hours. No pain, virtually no swelling, no blood at all, no crusting. Have not taken single pain killer. I waited for this procedure with Dr Fagian for 2 years and it was totally worth it! I wish more surgeons would be like him. Totally a class act and bed side manner is so warm and professional. Better schedule your consult ASAP. I promise you will not need sorryPosted on Google

Jeevanpre Jowhal18 March 2026EXCEPTIONAL! Dr Fagien is simply exceptional. I’ve known him for 20+ years, and that level of trust made my decision to undergo surgery an easy one. His approach is both refined & conservative, resulting in beautifully natural, classy outcomes- my results exceeded my expectations! He took the time to genuinely listen to my concerns- which feels increasingly rare these days, lol- and made me feel completely at ease.

Roberta Deutsch3 September 2021Nine years ago, I had a consultation with Dr. Fagien . Over the years, I’ve seen him for fillers and Botox with great results. No one ever knows that I’ve had anything done. He believes you should just look as if you’ve been on vacation and you do. In July, I finally had the time for the surgery. The results are outstanding. Dr. Fagien is not only an extraordinary surgeon, he is meticulous and precise in everything that he does and that is clearly reflected in the results he obtains. He has such a wonderful bedside manner and the temperature in the room goes down a notch just when he enters. He is kind and generous with his time and will explain anything you ask about what he is doing and why. He has a very detailed protocol pre-and post surgery that produces the very best of results if you follow it. His staff is outstanding as well, welcoming and kind, very knowledgeable about what they are doing, which obviously comes from him and from being around him. There are really no adequate words to describe how fabulous I feel and how great I look, thanks to Dr. Fagien, and there is no one else I would trust but him.Posted on Google

I really enjoyed his attention to detail and making sure I was comfortable. I am not one for getting work done that doesn’t look natural and he helped me achieve my goal with a more natural look. He also has an amazing vibe and great bedside manner. Highly recommended to anyone in the South Florida area.Posted on HealthgradesAmy11 August 2021My experience with dr Vaca was fantastic!

Denise Cody9 September 2025I 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

Dr. Fagien and his staff are exceptional.Posted on HealthgradesTracy Brinker3 November 2023Amazing 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!!!!!Posted on HealthgradesVMarie19 January 2020Dr. Fagien and his office staff could not be more professional or nicer! I had my eyelids done and took off my steri strips in my sleep. It was Sat morning so I called the answering service. Seconds later Dr. Fagien called me to meet him at the office and fix the problem.

Susan V28 July 2022Dr. Fagien is one of the most ethical plastic surgeons I have ever met. I would highly recommend him. After leaving his office he advised me that I really didn’t need the work I was asking for and advised me to see my health care provider. I don’t know many if any plastic surgeons that would do that.
