I have been a patient for many years and continue to return because Dr. Fagien is a wonderful doctor. He performed my cosmetic eye surgery and because of the results I have sent many people to him. He is an artist with fillers and other injectables and the outcome is natural and beautiful. I highly recommend him and his excellent staff.Posted on Healthgrades![]()

Dr. Fagien performed bilateral upper and lower blepharoplasty 15 years ago with great results so I returned to have a repeat procedure. He’s a fantastic physician: friendly, caring, honest, technically superb, respectful of his patients and staff, all factors that lead to a calm reassurance of optimal outcome.Posted on Healthgrades![]()

Upper blepharoplasty Dr. Fagien, who did my blepharoplasty, I truly do not have enough words. He came highly recommended by over 12 individuals who had nothing but incredible things to say about him and his work, and now I completely understand why. For over two and a half years I struggled with hooded eyelids. I stopped wearing makeup and I did not feel like myself.He is truly exceptional at what he does. His work reflects a level of precision and perfectionism that is rare to find. He is incredibly gifted at his craft, and it shows in every detail. His approach is conservative yet flawless. The lines are beautiful, the healing has been incredible, and the result is exactly what I hoped for, refreshed and natural, not altered. I am beyond grateful for his skill, his care, and the beautiful result he gave me.Posted on Google![]()

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 Google![]()

Dr 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 Healthgrades![]()

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!Posted on Google![]()

It'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.

I 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 Healthgrades![]()

A 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![]()

Dr. 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 Healthgrades![]()

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!Posted on Healthgrades![]()

Amazing!!! 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.

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.Posted on Google![]()

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.

This is the only man you should trust with your eye improvements surgery. His resume, experience, and medical publications are above and beyond reproach. He has been doing this for so long and has developed insights and new procedures to maximize the benefit and minimize the pain and downtime, that he is considered a master by the other doctors in this particular niche of surgery. His office is neat, clean, and crisp and inviting. The staff is so very supportive and really go the extra step to make sure you are comfortable throughout the whole process. My results were fabulous and the whole experience was much easier than anticipated. I have never had elective surgery and was very frightened to go through with this. But my eyes were rejuvenated and i am very comfortable now with the look and feel of my upgraded eyelids. Truly real pros in every aspect.Posted on Google![]()

Michelle haddock22 June 2020
I 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 Healthgrades![]()

Upper eyes Dr Fagien has changed my life and made me more beautiful than I ever thought I could be. I was very nervous about getting my eyes done and researched all the top surgeons in the States. Finally, I had a consultation with Dr. Fagien and felt assured that I should move forward and get the droopy lids fixed. I can't believe how beautiful my eyes look. The lids and puffiness on the sides were removed. He took the exact measurements pre op and it was a perfect result. I wish I had done it sooner. He's a magician.Posted on Healthgrades![]()

Honestly 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 Google![]()

I 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![]()

My experience with Dr. Vaca was one to rave about! I was nervous to get Botox for the first time, but he was incredibly professional, patient and experienced. His bedside manner is informative yet calming. Also, his academic and professional accolades pretty much speak for themselves. I highly recommend using him!Posted on Healthgrades![]()

masterful artistry This is unsolicited unpaid genuine review. I am a doctor and I did a lot of research and chose Dr. Fagien based on his reputation, experience, and cases. I had zero doubts when I scheduled my consultation for which I had to wait nine months and then my surgery was nine months later. I was told that I will not have any pain and will not need a single after the procedure. Dr. Fagien is a perfectionist and is a great seasoned meticulous surgeon who has protocols based on science and experience. The surgical center was extremely professional, surgery went off without a hitch exactly as he described in the initial consultation. I had absolutely zero pain. I was back to work four days later with stitches, that nobody even noticed, including my own patients. I went out to social events without Make Up and had no reservations. If you’re contemplating any eye surgery Run don’t walk because you will have to wait at least two years!Posted on Healthgrades![]()

Amazing Cosmetic Eye Surgeon Recently 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 Google![]()

Dr 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![]()

Best of the Best I went to see Dr. Fagien for upper and lower eyelid surgery. The minute I stepped into his office I knew without a doubt that I was in the right place. His office is aesthetically pleasing. His staff is so friendly and welcoming. Dr. Fagien hands down is the best doctor/surgeon that I have ever met in my life. He is so professional and has such a calming demeanor. As it got closer to my surgery his staff kept me informed and engaged every step of the way. I shared with many of them my fears and anxiety about this, my first surgery in life, and they were so reassuring which helped to put me in a peaceful place. The days leading up to and immediately following the surgery they kept in constant contact with me and checked on me regularly. They went above and beyond. Dr. Fagien is a top notch doctor who is very careful, precisioned, and a laser focused surgeon. He ialso has a very calming spirit about himself that put me instantly at ease. I highly, highly recommend Dr. Fagien.
