Help to find info. search failed

I actually have 2 questions.Ive been to this doctor a while ago  because of this really ugly looking pimple thing that sort of irritates sometimes, and yellow puss comes out of it.  He told me it was an Assist, and needs to be surgically removed.  How do you spell it?  I am tryign to find info on the web and get too many links for "Assistance", as in helping someone.  Bolvarian assist or soemthing.  Does anyone know the correct spelling, or a link with more info.

Acne/Birth Control

I took double the amount of birth control pills I should have for a period of about four days and now my face is a blur of zits. I have NEVER had acne this bad and I have been researching it. The symptoms came on right after I took the last pill, so I am thinking there are too many androgen hormones in my body. Is that what is causing this acne explosion?? If so, should I stop taking the pills and how long does it take to get out of the body and return to normal??

Please help.

surgical loupes in dermatology

Are surgical loupes used by dermatologists?  Or perhaps loupes that are used in the dental field.  Is there a loupe that is made specifically for dermatologists?  can someone please provide a link to a place where dental or surgical loupes can be purchased?
