Mega, super mega and giga sessions

Medically reviewed by [medical reviewer name], [review date]

Hair transplants are done in sessions, and a session is named by how many grafts are implanted in it. At the centre, a mega session is 2,500 grafts, a super mega session 4,000 grafts and a giga session more than 4,000 grafts.

Session sizes

SessionNumber of grafts
Mega session2,500 grafts
Super mega session4,000 grafts
Giga sessionMore than 4,000 grafts

One advantage of larger sessions is that many patients get the result they want in a single session.

What large sessions depend on

Large sessions need a big, well-trained team of doctors and surgical assistants. Whether one is possible depends on three things:

  • the capability of the surgeon and team to handle that many grafts
  • the donor supply: whether your donor area can give enough grafts
  • the speed of the dissectors and implanters: more than 300 follicles an hour for dissection and more than 400 grafts an hour for implantation
