If you had a Brazilian butt lift (via fat graft) was it worth it?

I'm scheduled to have one and I really want a nice round lifted bootie but I hear it is quite painful.  I've read the lipo in the back and flanks is really painful and the swelling there takes forever to go away.  I've also read that you can't sit for 4 weeks.  Also, how much did your booty shrink after healing and how long did it take before it was it's final size.

Thanks for all you feedback!

Tamera, I am too early out to tell how much my bootie will shrink but my swelling has gone down. I was told that 20-40% could be reabsorbed eventually. Yes, it is really sore but I can say 4 weeks out that the injected fat now feels like my own where 1st 2 weeks it felt like I was sitting on 2 cups..
I was never told I cant sit on them..I am sitting alot. But I did figure a way to lay on my side to eleviate the pressure on the booty. 1st week and half was hard to sit for any length of time without readjusting.

Hope this helps
