The topic arose because earlier actresses used to look rather tired, aged or jaded at 30 itself. Madhuri had begun to look older, tired which reflected in DTPH, and later films like Wajood etc.
Of course actresses have skin care routines, personal staff etc but earlier even actresses did not look so good.
I think today's actors have additional luxury of surgeries, botox, Photoshop which make them look great at any age.
We have even fat reduction surgeries now. And all procedures to make skin look smooth, wrinkle free.
