Personally, I think the Forsaken bodies age (and die) just like any other (non-oathrodbound) channeler.
What makes them immortal is that the DO can tranmigrate them into new bodies when the old bodies die, with their memories intact. I don't think there is anything more to it than that.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
What makes the Forsaken immortal?

I think the Dark One "plucks" their threads from the Pattern and holds them apart from it.
