Why do some doctors offer face fat grafting over several sessions?

daynnight
I've been wanting to get fat injections to make my face look fuller. One doctor quoted me $3,000, but he'd do it in 3 different sessions. He would freeze my fat on the first session so he would use that fat for the next 2 sessions. He said I'd have to go back every 6 weeks to get the remaining sessions done. The other doctor also said it'd be $3,000, but it would all be done in one session. I'm confused. Can someone please tell me what the difference is between these 2. Thanks in advance!
