Maia Pinzur7 August 2024Dr. 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!!Posted on Healthgrades

Esin Pinarli16 June 2023Dr. Steven Faigen and Dr. Vaca are at the top of their game on Every level . Not only is Dr. Faigen a consummate professional and an artist at his craft, he is humble, funny and gracious. It is very rare to have a doctor undersell, while having impeccable bedside manners and also be the absolute best at what they do. Love him and his whole team. I felt safe and cared for. He is a brilliant, gifted surgeon and has been my doctor for Over 10 years. He has a keen eye for detail and is a perfectionistic. I would not have any other doctor touch my face period.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 Healthgrades

Alisa Landy12 November 2023It 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.Posted on Google
Linda Wolf12 December 2021I've had some Botox for around my eye area and deep wrinkles on my nose close to my forehead area and fillers for deep lines in my lip area and cheeks as well and a shot of botox in my jaw area for grinding teeth at night this is not necessarily aesthetic. Its been about a week and I am taking double takes when I walk by mirror. My eye liner stays where I put it and I have cheekbones and my mouth is pouting. I'm 72 next week. He's that good!!Posted on Healthgrades
Keys Pat13 May 2022Great 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.Posted on Healthgrades

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 Healthgrades

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 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 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

I am a Commercial Airline Pilot and I only wanted the best doctor to work on my eyes. I wanted a plastic surgeon who specialized in eyes. I heard great things about Dr. Fagien’s work. Ten years ago Dr. Fagien did my upper eyelids. They looked amazing. They looked very natural and I was very happy with the outcome. Ten years later I had my lower lids done. Even though it’s a bit of a drive for me I never even considered another doctor. He gives me the natural, refreshed look that I want. His staff at both his office and the surgical center are very helpful and answered all my questions. I highly recommend him.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User22 June 2026Best Blepharoplasty Doctor I have been waiting to do my eye surgery for several years.

Dr. Fagien and his staff are exceptional.Posted on HealthgradesHealthgrades User17 August 2019Dr. Steve Fagien is an exceptional surgeon. He performed under eye surgery on my daughter in June 2018. She had developed dark circles under eyes at a young age and was very sad about her looks. She wouldn't go without makeup on. I was concerned and afraid of the surgery because of her young age. The results from the surgery were simply amazing. She is so happy and looks so beautiful. As a mother, I can't tell you how delighted I am to see her smile and love her looks again. He and his staff are personable and very accessible. They were there for us before, during and after the surgery. I give the whole experience a 10. He is the best!Posted on Google

martha sanchez10 August 2018Dr Fagien is very knowledgeable and honest.

Michelle haddock22 June 2020I was a patient of Dr. Fagien several years ago and was extremely pleased with the results of my surgery. Recently I had filler under my eyes from a different physician to help conceal my under eye circles. I was not happy with the result. The filler made my eyes look puffy underneath and more black under my eyes. I waited 7 months for the filler to dissolve but it didn’t. I decided to see Dr. Fagien because I know this is his area of expertise. He advised me to go back to the original Dr. which I did but with no resolution. I explained I was concerned it may get worse. He told me he would take care of it but I shouldn’t waste my money over a mistake. I went to the original Dr. and it has been progressively getting better. I really appreciate Dr. Fagien being so ethical. I was ready to pay him and he said I should go back. Not many Drs. would do that! Also, I am not upset with the Dr. who made the mistake. Any surgery or fillers have room for error.Posted on Google

When it is time I will definitely return to see Dr Fagien.Posted on HealthgradesDC3 November 2021Dr. Fagien came very highly recommended by three different friends. I had gone for two prior consultations with other docs in FL and NY for my eyelids which were droopy with excess skin and dark circles below. Once I met with Dr. Fagien, I knew that he was the right choice immediately. He is a highly respected oculoplastic surgeon whose work is the gold standard in this field. He performed upper and lower blepharoplasty on me, and I couldn't be happier with the natural results! I 100% recommend him. I have had so many complements on my 'refreshed' look and am SO happy I chose him to perform the surgery. Your eyes will thank you.Posted on Google

Jahlecia Newland11 July 2024Dr. Vaca is an exceptional Surgeon who has truly changed my life. he restored my self-esteem when he performed surgery on my ear to remove a very large tumor that I had for many years. The tumor haunted me for years and I could not find anyone willing to remove it. I was truly blessed when I was introduced to Dr. Vaca by my aunt who believed that Dr. Vaca was the best person to remove this tumor. Without hesitation, Dr. Vaca agreed. From the moment I met Dr. Vaca, I was impressed by his professionalism, empathy, and dedication to patient care. He made me feel calm, safe, secure, and completely at ease throughout the procedure. Dr. Vaca took the time to thoroughly explain my procedure, ensuring that I understood every step. The surgery itself was a success beyond my expectations. Dr. Vaca's expertise was evident throughout my recovery. I was free from scarring to my surgical site, and looking on my ears, you cannot tell which ear had the surgery. Post-surgery instructions and care were exemplary. I would highly recommend Dr. Vaca to anyone seeking top-notch surgery. Thank you Dr. Vaca and your exceptional team for your exceptional work and for making a significant difference in my life. I am blessed to have you as my doctor.

Rick Tobin8 July 2026Top notch!Posted on HealthgradesMV1 March 2023A True Professional and Wonderful Office staff I underwent a tummy tuck and liposuction one year ago with Dr. Vaca. To say I was nervous is an understatement. I was a bit of a challenging case as I’d had a tumor removed 25 years ago which left me with a vertical and horizontal scar on my abdomen and upper stomach. I knew that anyone Dr Fagien would partner with would be amazing and after meeting Dr Vaca I never felt the need for a 2nd opinion. I especially appreciated how he took the time to think through my procedure considering the challenging scar he had to deal with. His bedside manner is so calming and I truly felt at ease and confident with him. A couple of weeks before the surgery I was so nervous I asked for another meeting just to go over everything with him and his office didn’t hesitate to accommodate me. My results have been absolutely outstanding. I truly have a new lease on life and absolutely love getting dressed every morning! I would not hesitate to recommend any of my family or friends to him!!! Thank you Dr Vaca!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

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 HealthgradesLissette E in Miami, FL12 February 2019I recently had Dr. Fagien perform injectables on my face, for the second time. The experience was painless, stress-free and very comfortable. He is truly an expert in his field, compounded with kindness and making his patients feel cared for.Posted on Google
