BP doesn't age the skin.

Improper protection from the sun while using BP ages the skin.

I'm not 100% sure but some sites say "Benzoyl peroxide creates free radicals and is known to cause premature skin aging"

Try probiotics, there is topical a probiotic in in the market!
You can leran about probiotics in my previous post " Probiotic, A breakthrough....
Really, is a new product and technology in the market because it is difficult to keep probiotics on shelf, only one lab produce it.

The very AIR in your house contains free radicals. Anytime you COOK FOOD and then eat it, you're eating free radicals. Free radicals are EVERYWHERE.

Your skin has a very robust system of countermeasures to fight against free radicals (since the skin encounters free radicals every moment of its life). BP also doesn't penetrate the skin enough for the free radicals to do much work, and your skin completely sheds itself in 4-6 weeks anyway, so it's a non-issue.
