Abstract
In methods for treating a patient, a time varying magnetic field is applied to a patient's body and causes a muscle contraction. The time-varying magnetic field may be monophasic, biphasic, polyphasic and/or static. The method may reduce adipose tissue, improve metabolism, blood and/or lymph circulation. The method may use combinations of treatments to enhance the visual appearance of the patient.
Claims20
A device for treating a patient, comprising:
- an energy delivery element configured to apply a time-varying magnetic field and a radiofrequency field to a patient,
- wherein the time-varying magnetic field has a magnetic flux density in a range of 0.1 Tesla to 7 Tesla,
- a low-frequency generator coupled to the energy delivery element, wherein the low-frequency generator is configured to provide a first signal to the energy delivery element for generating the time-varying magnetic field;
- and
- a high-frequency generator coupled to the energy delivery element, wherein the high-frequency generator is configured to provide a second signal to the energy delivery element for generating the radiofrequency field.
