The answer to this, generally, is yes. Everyone is different, but with age, bones begin to deteriorate, muscles weaken with disuse, and balance issues cause movement to be more difficult. Seniors over the age of 65 become more at risk for conditions like osteoporosis, and other conditions that weaken the bones and muscles. Also, when someone lacks the ability to move easily, they remain stationary most of the day because it's easier for them. This causes muscles to atrophy which makes them even weaker. The elderly become frail with age almost always (to what degree varies from person to person), and falls become more likely.

Is this the correct sentence structurefor this sentence A thin frail elderly appearing 65-year-old lady?
But that isn't a sentence, it is a sentence fragment. Let's say you want to use that fragment in a sentence. You might say something like, My neighbor is a thin, frail, elderly-appearing 65-year-old lady. As an editor I would also point out that if you have already noted that this woman is thin and frail and 65 years old, it is really superfluous to also state that her appearance is elderly. I would omit that phrase.
