Cheek implants or fat graft first?

Luminous593734
I'm interested in having both cheek implants and fat graft done at different times. Which should I do first? I can see that, if I did implants first, it’d affect the blood flow and can make it hard for the future fat graft to survive. If fat graft first, I could imagine the scarring from it could make it hard to insert implants in that area.
