never once have they said in the manga or in any interviews that creation rebirth makes her look older than she does

The theory behind it is that skins cells lose elasticity as the body ages, caused by the cells shortening division. They all don't stop dividing at once. Tsunade wouldn't just die, she would grow old much earlier and die much earlier, she wouldn't just plop dead. Also, her being a Sannin has nothing to do with it, perhaps her Uzumaki lineage increases her overall age, but even Mito was seen to be extremely old at the time of her death. We have no idea how abused Tsunade's body has become because of Creation Rebirth.

If you want to create a speculation forum that's fine. But don't spend the entire time shooting down theories. Just a little piece of advice. </ its not about shooting you down its about discussing it.
