HQ does provide that mechanism. If you take the example of the Large / Small. Most creatures have only a large or small rating but Anaxial's Roster it says something about Humans having a rating of Large 6 or Small 6 depending on the circumstance (p14).

Following this the Young could be reduced until it got to Young 6 when it also becomes Old 6 and the next step is to start increasing the Old rating.

Gavain

The only "problem" comes if you are playing the same character continuously from their impetuous youth to their dotage, finding a way to reduce their "Young" and then increase their "Old" at a reasonable rate, and without them ever being both at the same time... It would be some sort of directed increase, with the possibility of the player spending HP to either stave off the onset of aging, or increase the effects (for the prematurely aged)
