At the award-winning Time Clinic, we offer skin tightening treatments in Essex that can help firm, contour and smooth your skin.
As we age, collagen and elastin production in our skin starts to slow down.
This is why we develop loose and sagging skin around the jawline, chin, and cheek area.
Losing or gaining weight and other lifestyle factors can also lead to unwanted fat cells forming in the lower face and under the chin.
But how do you reduce the early signs of sagging skin without going under the knife?
At Time Clinic, we use cutting-edge skin tightening treatments, including Secret RF Microneedling and SkinPen micro needling, to help you achieve a more lifted and youthful appearance.
Our medical experts, led by top UK aesthetics Dr Manav Bawa will tailor your treatment to address your skin concerns and specific skin needs.
This starts with an initial consultation, during which we can learn more about you and what you want to achieve from skin tightening treatment.

Best skin tightening procedure Essex
SkinPen microneedling
SkinPen microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a device with very tiny needles that puncture the skin.
This creates microchannels that trigger the body’s natural healing process.
As a result, your skin will stimulate collagen production to help it heal.
Over time, this leads to firmer skin that looks more lifted and smooth.
Benefits of SkinPen microneedling
- Improves skin tone and skin texture
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Leads to firmer skin and skin tightening effects
- Works on all skin types, including darker skin tones
- Treats large pores, acne scars and stretch marks
- Minimal discomfort and downtime
- Suitable for all skin types
How does it work?
SkinPen microneedling uses a precision pen-like device, including tiny needles that puncture the skin. The needles work fast, causing less discomfort and trauma to the skin.
We tailor the depths at which the needle penetrates the skin.
For acne scarring, we will increase the depth to reach the deep layers of the skin.
We may only need the needles to reach a shallow depth if we treat large pores.
When the needles enter the skin, they create a micro-injury. This causes your body to respond by sending your skin into healing mode. This process stimulates collagen production, which helps to tighten loose skin for a more youthful look. SkinPen micro needling works best for mild to moderate skin laxity.
SkinPen microneedling results
To see optimal skin tightening results, you will need a course of 3-4 treatments. You can see visible improvements in your skin after the first and second treatment sessions. This includes smoother skin and fewer fine lines and wrinkles in the treated area.
Collagen starts to build in the skin after 4-6 weeks, so your skin becomes more plump and firm a few weeks after each session. You will see your final results 1-2 months after your final treatment.
Downtime is minimal, but you may experience a slight redness for 24-48 hours. This is normal; your doctor will tell you how to take care of your skin post-treatment.
Secret (RF) microneedling
Secret RF Microneedling takes traditional micro needling to the next level. It uses Radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin to promote further collagen production and skin tightening. This makes it the ideal option for anyone with moderate skin laxity or more advanced sagging skin.
Benefits of RF microneedling
- Targets excess skin that is sagging and helps to firm it
- Enhances skin tone and skin texture
- Improves skin elasticity in the face, neck, hands and other body areas
- Boost collagen and elastin in the dermal layer of the skin
- Treats stretch marks, cellulite and other scars
- Minimal discomfort and downtime
- Suitable for all skin types
- Long-lasting results
While RF micro needling focuses on tightening the skin, it can also help target stubborn fat in certain areas, including the face and jawline. To do this, we need to adjust the needle’s depth and the RF energy’s intensity.
How does it work?
The device uses tiny needles to puncture the skin and deliver RF energy at the same time. This targets the deep layers of the skin that require the most attention and rejuvenation.
It does not involve the downtime associated with other laser treatments or therapy, which means you can see great results without having to take time off work.
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling results
After the first treatment, you will start to see visible improvements in your skin. This will include a more bright and radiant complexion and firmer skin.
However, we recommend a course of 3-4 treatments to see the best results. As with traditional microneedling, new collagen can take 4-6 weeks to form. Because of this, your results will continue to improve for the next few months after your final treatment.
