Does age affect whether fat cells survive? I'm 46 yrs old and was told that because of my age BBL would not be recommended.

Because fat cells don't survive in an older person. That was the first time I heard that, although it sort of makes sense I guess. I've heard of the 30-50% chance of surviving fat cells in an ordinary surgery due to other contributing factors. Please let me know if it would be wasteful for me to pay for something that is scientifically known not to last. Thank you
