A device, a system and a method for treating heart valve regurgitation. The annulus reshaping device comprises a base and a plurality of legs radially arranged there upon. The device can transform from a delivery configuration wherein it is deliverable by catheter to a treatment site, into a deployment configuration, and then a treatment configuration for treating valvular regurgitation. The device is implanted into the annulus of a heart valve, and the legs of the device can be telescopically withdrawn to apply an inward force to the annulus. The system comprises a device slidably received within a catheter. The method of treatment comprises delivering a device to a treatment area, via catheter, releasing the device from the catheter, positioning the legs of the device on a valve annulus, and applying an inward force to the annulus to reduce the regurgitation.
