How to add padding-left on a UILabel created programmatically?

Question

I know this is a noob question but ...I have these labels on a tableview, but the text is completely squished to the left. I want to add a bit of padding. How do I go about

You could use a UITextView instead. I did this in Cocoa but I'm pretty sure it translates to UITextView:

    NSTextView *headerLabel = [[[NSTextView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(20.0, 20.0, 400.0, 20.0)] autorelease];
[headerLabel setBackgroundColor: [NSColor redColor]];
[headerLabel setString: @"Testing Stuff"];
[headerLabel setTextColor:  [NSColor whiteColor]];

NSSize txtPadding; 
txtPadding.width = 20.0;
txtPadding.height = 0.0;
[headerLabel setTextContainerInset:txtPadding];

[[mainWin contentView] addSubview:headerLabel];
