How many grafts did I have taken?

Asked By:chachabains222 in USA

I had an FUE done recently for facial hair transplant. It was charged as 1200 grafts but was actually 600 two hair grafts split into 1200 singles. Is there a reason why no single hair grafts were taken? Likewise, does this mean it was a 600 or 1200 graft procedure? I've been told that a 600 procedure is considered very small and barely affects my donor area (which I'm hoping is the case because I'm regretting the procedure and want to get rid of it).
