Medically reviewed by Christopher Lee, MDMedically reviewed by Christopher Lee, MDHeart cancer develops when abnormal cells in the heart muscle or surrounding tissues grow uncontrollably, forming a malignant (cancerous) tumor. Cancerous heart tumors (known as cardiac sarcomas) are extremely rare, accounting for less than 0.028% of all cancer diagnoses annually.  Secondary heart cancer is when cancer cells metastasize (spread) to the heart from a tumor that started in nearby organs or body tissues.

If it seems like everybody is on Ozempic, it’s because a lot of people are on Ozempic—about six percent of U.S. adults (that’s about 15.5 million people) have taken the drug, according to a recent Gallup poll. And a decent number of those Ozempic patients are becoming plastic surgery patients—getting a nip, a tuck, or even a full-body lift to address the other changes, like excess skin, that can come with rapid weight loss. About 10 to 15 percent—or “one person per day”—of the people walking into his Beverly Hills practice have taken a semaglutide like Ozempic for weight loss, says Jason Diamond, MD, FACS, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon.
