I recently had two facial surgeries done with Dr. Vaca. I am blown away by the beautiful and elegant results. From the initial consultation to the surgery I felt truly cared for as Dr. Vaca was so kind and also so mathematically precise with his considerations and measurements of my eyes and of the harmony of my face. Even the staff at the surgery center commented on how they try to get into the OR to watch his innovative techniques. I would trust him with my face again. He is a truly gifted surgeon and a very kind, compassionate person.

A Life-Changing Experience with Dr. Fagien!

I can’t thank Dr. Fagien enough for literally “fixing” my eyes after a botched procedure in New York. From the moment I walked into his office, I knew I was in good hands. Dr. Fagien and his entire staff are beyond wonderful—professional, kind, and truly dedicated to their patients' well-being.

If you’re out of state and looking for the best doctor, I highly recommend making the trip to Florida. The quality of care, expertise, and attention to detail is absolutely unmatched. I honestly wish I had come to him first. The results speak for themselves, and I’m so grateful for the positive change he’s made in my life.

If you’re considering eye surgery or any related procedures, don’t hesitate—Dr. Fagien is the doctor to trust! You will not regret it!

Dr. Vaca is one of the best plastic surgeons I have ever worked with. 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. 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.

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.

Not only were the surgical results outstanding, but being a physician I can attest to the fact that the high level of kind professionalism displayed by the entire staff is very rarely encountered & therefore noteworthy & must be acknowledged & mentioned.

It takes forever to get an appointment but it is well worth the wait. I’m very very pleased with the results of the surgery (5 1/2 weeks out) and the whole process was really pretty easy. Plus the staff couldn’t be nicer in terms of answering questions and follow up. They even sent someone from the office the day of surgery to see if I had any questions and generally to put me at ease   As I wrote it is worth the wait.

I’ve seen Dr Faigen for injectables.  You may feel confident in Dr Faigen’s work.  His approach is comforting, his work distinguished.  He listens and creates a wonderful, natural look.  He and his staff’s care and warmth is apparent during the entire experience.  I have recommended him to family and friends, which is the greatest compliment.

In June 2020 Dr. Vaca performed a facelift using the SMAS technique.  From the first day we met, during many emails and phone calls, day of surgery, post-op visits and again, many calls and emails, Dr. Vaca was informative, caring and patient.  Dr. Vaca is very detailed and made sure that I fully understood everything regarding my health and procedure.  Every question was answered.  I am thrilled with the outcome and happy to speak to anyone who still has questions about Dr. Vaca.

Dr. Faigen and his staff are absolutely fantastic. From my first consultation, to pre-op, to surgery and post op, I felt completely at ease and had the most amazing results. Dr. Faigen was straight forward about what results could be achieved, and I couldn’t be happier I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a natural and beautiful result.

Dr 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.

Exceptional Results
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Elbert Vaca. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt completely at ease. He takes the time to truly listen, answer every question with patience, and explain all options in a way that is clear and comforting. His caring nature is evident not only in how he treats his patients, but also in the beautiful and natural results he delivers.The quality of his work speaks for itself — precise, thoughtful, and done with such an artistic eye that enhances rather than changes who you are. What I appreciate most is how much he genuinely cares about his patients’ well-being, both physically and emotionally. You never feel rushed or like 'just another appointment'; he treats you as if you’re the most important person in the room.If you are looking for a cosmetic surgeon who combines exceptional skill with true compassion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Vaca. He is a rare find, and I feel so grateful to be in his care.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Fagen. He is absolutely flawless — the most professional, skilled, and compassionate physician I have ever encountered. His expertise in eye procedures is unmatched, and his calm, confident manner immediately puts you at ease. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. I trust him completely and wouldn’t consider going anywhere else!

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!

A friend had recommended Dr. Fagien while I was visiting in Florida. I decided to stay in Florida beyond my expected departure and made my appointment with Dr. Fagien. I can’t believe the different between my prior experiences and with Dr. Fagien and his staff. The office was impeccable and I felt like I was the only patient there as they have strict Covid policies. I was brought into meet Dr. Fagien exactly on time. Dr. Fagien evaluate me and explained my options in exquisite detail including what I could expect from each of the treatments. His treatment nearly painless and had minimal signs of treatment. I was thrilled with the experience and the results as were my friend who was also impressed. I will be flying back down to Florida for my next treatments and when I need eyelid surgery. Thank you Dr. Fagien and your amazing staff!

This is the best team of medical staff I have ever had. I was truly impressed with the facility and the caring staff. I received the best possible treatment and owe my life to Dr. Fagien. I had a reaction one weekend while he was out of town and he still retuned my call within a very short time. He is so knowledgeable and was able to identify and resolve the problem. I felt so safe and knew I was in good hands. I could not have asked for any better care. Dr. Fagien and his staff are exceptional.

What 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!!

Dr. 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.

Dr. Fagien is an amazing plastic surgeon. He is so skilled and meticulous and I am so pleased with the results of my upper and lower eyelid surgery. He is thorough and personable and that was very comforting.  The staff is also so kind, helpful and available whenever I had any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Dr. Fagien.

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!

Excellent doctor, office and results. I am beyond pleased with my eye bag surgery. As a retired medical professional I am a very observant patient and they deserve the highest recommendation possible.

Simply the Best!
There is a reason Dr. Vaca is consistently rated 5 Stars. The experience starts with a phenomenal staff. From the moment you first call, you are treated with the utmost professionalism and personal touch. I just underwent a mini face lift with Dr. Vaca and could not be more pleased to have had him as my surgeon. He has impecable bedside manners. He takes tremendous pride in his craft, and as such, is meticulous and thourough. He listens attentively, addresses every concern, explains timelines, and sets realistic expectations. He takes his time to make sure the patient feels comfortable. At no point will you ever feel rushed. The procedure went so very smoothly, and so did the recovery. There was zero bruising, and very mild swelling! I was able to return to work within a week, and the end result was a very natural look! A youthful, and rested look. It is the combination of personal care and attention coupled with such quality of medical care that makes Dr. Vaca an exceptional surgeon

Dr 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.

Dr. Fagien is extremely professional with a gentle and kind demeanor and an artistic eye. He is very personal in his approach to the patient and is sensitive to differences in facial features and what would best suit each patient individually. He is a perfectionist in the best way, and truly helps the patient feel comfortable and confident in his care. His staff is well-trained and attentive. His facilities are top-notch, clean and modern. I highly recommend him. I couldn't be happier. His results are superb.

Highly recommend Dr. Fagien! He is the best!!
The past couple years, I’ve been researching which doctor to perform my upper and lower blepharoplasty. After several consults with doctors in Beverly Hills, I was referred to Dr. Fagien, from my cosmetic dermatologist, in Miami. After meeting Dr. Fagien and his staff, I knew he was the right one. The results are beyond my expectation! From start to finish, my experience was positive and I would highly recommend Dr. Fagien and his team. Thank you for everything!!

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.

this was my first experience and it was truly wonderful. dr Fagien takes his time and does a meticulously fantastic job doing the fillers. You do not have to be nervous because of the way they numb you and because of the tools dr Fagien uses. Basically painless. Everything about this office is so professional and friendly, that I can highly recommend to everyone who wants a bit of beautification. And the best thing is that nobody really notices what happened to me, but they just tell that I look good. And that is what I wanted.

The best!
My surgical experience with Dr. Vaca was extremely positive. I so appreciate his empathy for my concerns and professionalism in laying out reasonable expectations. I had facial and breast surgery, my stitches are nearly invisible. He and his staff were very available to answer questions along the way. Their kindness and attention to detail give me great confidence in recommending their practice. Superb results!

Wish more doctors were like Dr. Vaca
In an age of acceleration and rush, Dr. Vaca stands alone with his uncommon patience, sincere kindness and genuine care. He explains procedures thoroughly and his clinical skills are extraordinary. As a highly discerning patient, I can’t recommend Dr. Vaca highly enough.

Simply a pleasure! to work with.  He has that old bedside manner that has been lost in a lot of physician's.  I would say his work was impeccable since everyone thinks I look great and not "different".   The staff is very pleasant and they make you feel comfortable.  I would highly recommend Dr. Vaca!

Traveled from Nashville for blepharoplasty with Dr. Fagien, and my experience has been outstanding. Dr. Fagien is one of, if not the best, oculoplastic surgeons in the U.S., his staff is top notch, and my outcome has exceeded my expectations! Absolutely would do it again.

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!

I had my upper and lower lids done at the end of June, so I'm a month and a half post-op. I am extremely pleased with everything in this regard. Not only is Dr. Fagien incredible and talented, but every interaction with any member of his staff was always 5-star. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. 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.

Dr. Vaca is incredible. He has an outstanding quality of medical care. I got my lips done with him for the first time ever and I can say that I am extremely happy with the results. He took his time and listened to what I wanted and then explained everything to detail. I immediately felt at ease and confident in my receiving expert medical care.

I waited less than 5 minutes in waiting room. Dr Fagien came in exam room with in 3 minutes. We you honest and let me know what my options were. He told me to save my money that I wouldn’t get results that I was looking for . I’m very happy he was honest with me and not looking at my as dollar signs. Definitely would recommend him.
