In Japan, it's common to hear comments on weight and such. Pressure to conform and, sometimes, genuine concern about health. I think aging is unavoidable so it makes it less of a target. Even calling someone tired-looking can be an insult here if done in the wrong way (despite a greeting being お疲れ様です which is often used)
