Notably, her proficiency extends to facial plastic surgery, where she passionately pursues both surgical and non-surgical facial rejuvenation. 

Before embarking on his professional journey, she was influenced early on, growing up amidst her father’s surgical training in various locations across the U.S. A graduate with honors from the Medical College of Wisconsin, she furthered her education with a residency in General Surgery at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. As she trained at one of the busiest Level I trauma centers in the country, her interest in reconstructive surgery deepened, leading her to pursue a fellowship in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.

Her contributions also include publications on topics such as autologous breast reconstruction and smooth surface tissue expanders.

Plastic surgery is a surgical specialty involving the restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body. It can be divided into two main categories – reconstructive surgery and cosmetic surgery. A plastic surgeon’s primary responsibility is performing surgical and non-surgical procedures, and they use a variety of reparative and reconstructive techniques to get the job done.

On a more personal note, Dr. Fairchild finds joy in her family life, sharing moments with her husband, their baby girl, and their three dogs.
