An adjustable annuloplasty device is described. The device includes a body member comprising a shape memory material, the body member configured to be placed at or near a base of a valve of a heart. The device further includes a hysteretic material configured to undergo magnetic hysteresis in response to a first activation energy, the hysteretic material being in thermal communication with the shape memory material. The body member may have a first size of a body member dimension in a first configuration and a second size of the body member dimension in a second configuration. When the body member is in position in the heart, a change from the first configuration to the second configuration changes a size of a dimension of the annulus of the valve.
