Claim:
1. A method for cosmetic skin smoothening comprising the steps of: generating, by a first side part or a second side part of a device, a quasi-static magnetic field in a zone of a skin area to be smoothened, wherein the quasi-static magnetic field is generated by a first coil or a second coil respectively arranged in the first and second side parts, with each side part having an angular cross section for accommodating a head of a patient, and wherein generating the quasi-static magnetic field includes generating a magnetic field with field lines that extend from one of the side parts to the other one of the side parts, at least in portions thereof, simultaneously generating, by a base of the device, an alternating magnetic field in the zone of the skin area to be smoothened, wherein the alternating magnetic field is generated perpendicular to said quasi-static magnetic field, at least in portions thereof, by a third coil arranged in the base, and wherein the first and the second side parts extend from sides of the base to form a module, modulating a field strength of the quasi-static magnetic field or a frequency of the alternating magnetic field, wherein modulating the field strength of the quasi-static magnetic field or the frequency of the alternating magnetic field causes a fast adiabatic passage in a tissue to be treated, wherein the modulation frequency is selected so that magnetization is at least 60% of a maximum magnetization in the tissue to be treated, and wherein a cream is applied during the generation of the quasi-static magnetic field and the alternating magnetic field, which cream comprises hyaluronic acid.
