There are several products that create generations in characters. Now you have to have skin textures that reflect the age and bodily changes.
Are there any complete kits?
Suggestions for youth through elderly.

Zev0 had a set of textures for G3 with child and adult versions: https://www.daz3d.com/growing-up-skin-bundle-for-genesis-3
That's the only "skin only" pack I know.
There are also a few characters which have a "young" and "adult" version, for example Mandy or Prudence for G9:

Julia and Angela 9 have "teen skin" add-ons: https://www.daz3d.com/julia-9-hd-teen-skin-add-on and https://www.daz3d.com/angela-9-hd-teen-skin-add-on
You best option would be to use something like Skin Builder: https://www.daz3d.com/skin-builder-8-for-genesis-8-females combined with another product to use Gen 8 skins on Genesis 9.
Start with the base skin of your choice for the younger skin, then beginning increasing the bump/normal values for younger adults, and for older ages use some of the overlays available in skinbulider to age the skin, to quote the description in the product, these may include: "Blotches, Dark Pores, Fine Skin Details, Freckles, Veins, Spider Veins, Age Spots, Moles, Acne, Stretchmarks"
This way the bulk of the skin looks the same as they age.
