Revitalise Your Skin with SkinPen Microneedling
For a minimally invasive treatment that rejuvenates your skin from the inside out, look no further than SkinPen microneedling.
This advanced non-surgical treatment is clinically proven to smooth an uneven skin texture, reduce acne scars, and stimulate natural collagen production.
As the first FDA cleared microneedling device, SkinPen is recognised worldwide for its safety, precision, and impressive results.
At Time Clinic, our doctor-led team provides microneedling treatment on all skin types, delivering tailored results for smoother, firmer, and healthier skin with minimal downtime.
What is SkinPen microneedling?
SkinPen microneedling is one of the most advanced skin rejuvenation treatments in the UK.
The device uses tiny sterile needles to create controlled microinjuries in the skin. This triggers the body’s natural healing response and stimulates collagen and elastin production.
These are essential structural proteins that help to keep skin firm, plump and more youthful.
Each treatment cartridge, that contains the tiny needles, is single use, ensuring the highest standards of safety and hygiene.
At Time Clinic, we tailor your SkinPen microneedling treatment to work at different depths, depending on your skin type, the treatment area, and your individual skin concerns.
This makes it one of the most versatile treatments for effectively reducing fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores and skin pigmentation issues.
The benefits of SkinPen microneedling
SkinPen microneedling has a number of proven benefits that makes it one of the most popular skin rejuvenation treatments.
Improved skin texture
The stimulation of new collagen and elastin deeper in the skin helps to smooth uneven skin texture or refine rough patches of skin.
Acne scar reduction
SkinPen is an effective treatment for reducing acne scars and other minor scarring. This is because it remodels damaged tissue to minimise their appearance over time.
Collagen and elastin production
We lose collagen and elastin in our skin as we age. SkinPen creates micro-injuries in the skin that signals your deeper dermal layers to produce new collagen and elastin.
This leads to improved skin elasticity, firmness, and better overall skin health.
Reduces enlarged pores
New collagen helps to tighten large pores and make them appear more refined and less noticeable.
Minimise fine lines and wrinkles
SkinPen microneedling is a great option to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, mouth and forehead. It also works well on the neck and décolletage.
Correct pigmentation issues
A course of SkinPen microneedling treatment can help to fade dark spots of skin, including age spots, sun damage and melasma.
Safe for all skin type and skin tones
We can use SkinPen treatment safely on all different skin types, including darker skin tones.
Minimal Downtime
Following SkinPen microneedling, you return back to normal activities immediately after treatment.
Most patients can experience mild redness for up to 48 hours. This feels very similar to a light sunburn.
What skin concerns can SkinPen microneedling address?
SkinPen is one of the most versatile skin treatments that we can tailor to address a wide range of skin issues, including:
- Acne scars and minor scarring (including surgical scars)
- Stretch marks
- Large pores
- Uneven skin texture or areas of textured skin
- Improves dull, tired and dehydrated skin
- Firms mild to moderate skin laxity
- Reduces melasma and pigmentation (including age spots and sun spots)
SkinPen microneedling is suitable for men and women, and it is effective on multiple areas of the face and body.
The SkinPen microneedling treatment journey at Time Clinic
Personalised consultation
This is the first step in every patient’s journey. You will meet with a practitioner who will assess your skin condition, medical history, and skin concerns.
From this, they will develop a tailored treatment plan that is designed around your skin type and aesthetic goals.
The SkinPen microneedling procedure
- We will cleanse and prepare your skin for treatment.
- We apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area to ensure you feel minimal discomfort.
- The SkinPen device will glide gently across the skin to create controlled micro-channels in the skin.
- In total the procedure should take 30-60 minutes depending on the area being treated.
Comfort and expertise
At Time Clinic, you will be in the hands of fully trained medical practitioners who understand how to deliver microneedling treatment to ensure you see optimal results.

What to expect after SkinPen microneedling treatment
After your treatment, it is essential that you take care of your skin to support healing, reduce the possibility of side effects, and ensure you see amazing results.
Immediate appearance after treatment
Most patients will notice some mild redness and sensitivity in the treatment area for the first 24-48 hours. This is completely normal and will go down.
Gradual improvements
You will not see results immediately. But over the following weeks and months after microneedling treatment, you will notice an improvement in skin tone, skin texture, and overall skin radiance.
Side effects
If you follow your aftercare instructions and protect your skin, any side effects should be minimal.
You may experience temporary redness, skin tingling or mild swelling in the treated area.
Aftercare advice
To ensure a smooth recovery and maximise your results, we advise you to:
For the first 24 hours:
- Avoid wearing makeup

- Only use soothing gel provided by your practitioner
Days 2-3:
- Only use a gentle cleanser
