Is there any was to fix my crocodile legs?

When I as younger (20s-30s) I wore shorts year round, even in snowy weather. I grew up in the northeast US. As I’ve gotten older, there’s also a fair amount of t of lymphedema that I haven’t addressed because I have a few higher health priorities.

The skin on my shins looks like crocodile skin. It’s very smooth to the touch, but dry as hell.

To be fair, I lotion but not daily. I’m 50 and I have three kids and two dogs and a time demanding job, so my self care time is minimal.

I was wondering recently if something like micro needling would help as it’s known to stimulate collagen. Is there any serum or lotion or salve that would be beneficial?

Ignore the scar, that’s from a knee surgery and I don’t mind it. And yes, I’m a woman with huge feet, I know! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
