What Causes Redness On Face Of An Infant?

Hi, I have a one month old baby boy and his face is red and looks like its cooked. He had pimples first so I carried him to the doctor for it. She gave me baneocin ointment to use it wasnt working so she prescribed scherderma cream. I use that and now his face looks worst than ever. I need help clearing up his face.
