Yes.: Yes, you may use triamcinolone on your face; however, make sure to avoid any contact within the eyes. Before administration, make sure to wash and dry your hands as well as clean and dry the affected area. When applying triamcinolone, apply only a thin layer to the affected area. Do not use it on any open skin or wounds.
