The metric unit of mass is the kilogram, if you are weighing something light, you would still be weighing in kilograms, but instead of writing 0.001kg you would call it 1 gram; instead of 0.0000010kg you would say 10mg. The adding or subtracting of a prefix doesn't change the unit, it's always kilograms but for ease of use we use a slightly different word to describe whether it's a thousandth to a millionth of a kilogram.
