1. A device for providing a treatment to a body area of a patient, the device comprising:
an applicator comprising:
a magnetic field generating device configured to generate a time-varying magnetic field to cause a stimulation of the body area of the patient, wherein the body area comprises a face, a neck, or a chin,
wherein the time-varying magnetic field has a magnetic flux density in a range of 0.1 Tesla to 7 Tesla and a repetition rate in a range of 0.1 Hz to 700 Hz; and
a radiofrequency electrode configured to be positioned between the magnetic field generating device and the body area of the patient, wherein the radiofrequency electrode is positioned in at least partial overlay with the magnetic field generating device according to a floor projection of the applicator, and wherein the radiofrequency electrode is configured to generate a radiofrequency field to cause heating of tissue of the body area of the patient,
wherein the applicator is configured to be coupled to the body area of the patient by a polymeric layer.
