Gavin Dry, MD

Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon · Seattle, WA

Dr. Gavin Dry, MD, CMO

Top Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon in Seattle Area

Patients throughout Seattle turn to Dr. Gavin Dry, Chief Medical Officer of Athēnix, for his reputation as one of the region's most decorated plastic surgeons. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Dry has built a practice known across the greater Seattle area for combining surgical precision with genuine patient care, expertise that's earned him coverage from Seattle Magazine, Seattle Metropolitan Magazine, and King 5/NBC Seattle.

His recognition extends well beyond Seattle media. Castle Connolly has named him one of America's Top Doctors, and he's been featured on Access Hollywood and named Best Plastic Surgeon in Western Washington by King 5/Evening Magazine. Seattle-area patients also know him through 425 Magazine's Top Doctor list and Seattle Magazine's Best of the Best.

Dr. Dry's specialty is body contouring after massive weight loss, a subspecialty that demands both technical skill and an understanding of how the body changes during significant transformation. His most requested procedures include body lift, arm lift, thigh lift, breast lift, and breast augmentation, as well as the full range of plastic surgery services available to Seattle-area patients at Athēnix.

Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon · Seattle, WA

Dr. Walter Sweeney, MD

Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Serving Seattle

Seattle patients seeking natural, refined results turn to Dr. Walter Sweeney, a board-certified plastic surgeon recognized for his precision and artistry in facial rejuvenation and breast surgery. His approach favors results that restore harmony rather than an "operated" look, a philosophy shaped by both surgical training and a peer-reviewed research background in journals such as Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Aesthetic Plastic Surgery.

At Athēnix, Dr. Sweeney focuses on two areas: facial procedures and breast surgery. His facial work includes facelift, mini facelift, neck lift, brow lift, blepharoplasty, and buccal fat removal. His breast surgery practice spans augmentation, lift, reduction, revision, and combination procedures like mommy makeover, always beginning with a thorough conversation about each patient's goals and anatomy.

Known for consultations that patients describe as honest and reassuring, Dr. Sweeney has become one of the most sought-after plastic surgeons for Seattle-area patients, as well as those from Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond.

Dr. Dry & Dr. Sweeney Patient Reviews

“Dr. Sweeney is fantastic! He has great vision and skills in plastic surgery. He is honest and very kind. Takes time with his patients' wants and needs. He makes you feel like you’ve known each other forever, very comforting when you may not be comfortable in your own skin.”

ReaofSunshine143, Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

“Would do it over and over again! My results are beyond what I hoped for. I am forever grateful and this was the best decision I could’ve ever made!”

Mslynn555, Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

“Dr. Sweeney is a master of his craft! For those that don’t want to read the entirety of this review, let me summarize by saying Dr. Sweeney is phenomenal!!!!!”

FoxLA, Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

“It has been a year since seeing Dr. Sweeney for my surgery and I am very happy with the results! Very natural! He gives the best, most thorough consultation of any doctor. Much better than most! He leaves you with no doubts!”

Janis B., Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

“How much I praise about Dr. Sweeney is less! He is one of the best doctors I have ever met. We came to see Dr. Sweeney in March for my daughter. She is 8 years old and she had a pilomatricoma cyst on her face. Dr. Sweeney did the surgery and she is fully recovered.”

Sarmili G., Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

"This doctor is a lifesaver!!! So I was at a party on Saturday night and I took a bad spill and face-planted on the dance floor and split my chin right open. I got up, blood was gushing down my neck. I called the emergency number at midnight. I was stunned that he was able to get himself there so quickly. He was so professional, compassionate, caring, and took his time."

Alessandra D., Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Sweeney

I came to Athenix years ago for some improvements to my body after having my 2 beautiful kids. This is a hard choice to make when you’re a Mom! Athenix made it an easy choice. From my first visit the front desk and my consultant made me feel like family. I had surgery with Dr Dry who’s bedside manner is excellent and even better my results are everything I hoped they’d be. He is absolut...

Athēnix Patient, Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I told myself I would give my body a year before I wrote a review and here are my thoughts. I LOVE my results just as much now as I did then. I had a crazy quick recovery but I’m grateful for that since my son wanted to be more attached to me after my surgery. I was seen by Dr Dry and the man can work magic. I was nervous at first but after my first visit with him he said “oh you will be an e...

Stephanie B., Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I have received a few different procedures here. All of the staff from the front desk to the surgery staff are amazing. Jessica does an amazing facial and is so fun and personable. Dr. Dry performed my surgery and put my mind completely at ease, and was honest and realistic. The OR staff were also fantastic. Julius held my hand, and talked to me calming my nerves as I was getting anesthesia. Megan and Li...

Marie W., Google Plastic Surgery Patient, Dr. Dry

The whole team at Athenix is amazing! I first consulted with Elle back in September and immediately knew I wanted to book with them!

My incision is so clean and healing nicely. I also am having a second surgery with him in April. Every st...

Leslie M., Google Belt Lipectomy, Dr. Dry

Love love love everything about this office and it’s staff! Dr. Dry did AMAZING work, and everyone was so kind and helpful. They make sure you feel all the way comfortable and that all of your questions are answered. They have always taken the time to see me if I feel unsure about my healing progress and I trust their knowledge. I would never go anywhere else for work!

Sierra R., Google Plastic Surgery, Dr. Dry

The absolute BEST EXPERIENCE! I had an Extended Tummy Tuck, Liposuction of the flanks,  and a Breast Lift at Athenix Body Sculpting Institute in Bellevue, WA, 30 days ago. I cannot say enough about the experience from start to finish. From my 1st consult with Elle, to our many many emails, to the pre-op and post op.. everything was amazing. The patient consultants really care about you and the Nurse...

Cindy W., Google Mommy Makeover, Dr. Dry

I had my implants removed back in May by Dr Dry and I couldn’t be more happy with the before, during and after care and the outcome! The nurses and the staff were phenomenal! I didn’t realize how invasive of a surgery it was to have implants removed in comparison to place them and Dr. Dry took the time to thoroughly  explain what all I can expect from the surgery! He’s a very carin...

Tonia S., Google Breast Explant, Dr. Dry

I am a little over 3 months post op and LOVE my results! Dr. Dry and all of the staff were so welcoming, knowledgable and accommodating through the entire process! Not to mention Dr. Dry delivered in every way with what I was hoping to achieve. Everything from the entire process down to the procedure was so easy and comfortable I’d do it 100x over! So so happy!!

If I could give them 5+ Stars I would. The initial consultation was easy as can be with Katie. All of my communicatiom after scheduling were excellent with Anna.

The day of surgery I was anxious and Michelle was a breath of fres...

Johni G., Google Tummy Tuck Dr.

I can't understand why this guy isn't more popular. He has changed my life dramatically! He listened to my concerns and he even fixed my tummy tuck that was performed by another Dr. He is the best in WA and needs more recognition for what he can do! Thank you Dr. Dragotti!

What does it actually cost to invest in plastic surgery, and does it pay off? Seattle-area patients get honest answers straight from those who know best: real patients who've been through it, and the board-certified surgeons at Athēnix who perform these procedures every day. The cost of cosmetic surgery reflects far more than the procedure itself, including decades of surgical experience, truly personalized care, and financing options designed to make quality results more attainable than most people assume.

Reach out to our team or check our procedures page for the full list.

Which surgeons perform procedures for Seattle-area patients at Athēnix?

Seattle patients are cared for by Dr. Gavin Dry, MD, CMO, and Dr. Walter Sweeney, MD, both board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Dr. Dry brings over 25 years of experience with a focus on body contouring following weight loss, while Dr. Sweeney is known for his artistry in facial and breast procedures. Each surgeon has built a reputation for precision and highly individualized care.

Is the Athēnix surgical center accredited for patient safety?

Yes. Athēnix holds accreditation through the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), a nationally recognized standard for ambulatory surgical facilities. This accreditation confirms our facility has passed independent, third-party review for safety, quality, and patient care protocols.

How do I decide which surgeon fits my goals?

Your consultation is where our team helps match you with the right surgeon based on what you're hoping to achieve. Patients pursuing body contouring after significant weight loss are often paired with Dr. Dry, while those interested in facial rejuvenation or breast procedures typically work with Dr. Sweeney. No matter which surgeon you see, expect a treatment plan built specifically around you.

Are financing plans available for Seattle patients?

Yes, Athēnix offers financing to help patients move forward with their procedures without unnecessary delay. Our patient consultants will walk you through the available plans during your consultation and break down the full cost picture, covering surgeon fees, facility charges, anesthesia, and any additional expenses specific to your procedure.

What should I expect during tummy tuck recovery?

Recovery timelines vary, but many patients return to desk jobs and light daily routines within two to four weeks after a tummy tuck. Getting back to more strenuous exercise usually takes closer to six to eight weeks. Your surgeon will tailor recovery expectations to your specific procedure and health history.

Is it possible to combine multiple procedures in one surgery?

Absolutely, combination surgery is a common and often practical choice. A mommy makeover is a good example, pairing breast and body procedures into a single operation to cut down on total downtime. Whether combining procedures makes sense for you comes down to your anatomy and goals, which your surgeon will evaluate during consultation.
