Can Triamcinolone Acetonide Be Used Long Term For Skin Peeling?

Hi; I was prescribed the cream Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1 to be used 2 times daily. My doctor said to do this for two weeks. It is being used for my forehead, eyebrows, eyelids and the sideburn area. My doctor believes that I had a reaction to Hair Color (Just For Men) that I've used for many years without any issue. My forehead was pealing just like sunburn except after one layer came off it didn't stop. My question is can this cream be used long term if when I stop the skin pealing continues????????????????????? Jerry
