"faz" and "fachada" are related to the English word "facade" (from the French but with a "cedille") and can be used with reference to buildings, coins (faz) , etc.and not usually applied to humans and animals. ("fachada" can be applied to people but it then usually has a derogatory overtone ["¡qué fachada más fea!"="What an ugly puss!"}).On the other hand, "cara" is is the usual term for referring to people and animals.

As far as I can tell as a non-native "la faz" is a more formal usage for face. Besides this, it seems to be able to be used for landscape terminology like: "the face of the earth" or "the face of the cliff wall" or "the face of the edifice".
