Portuguese term or phrase: sinais (da face)
Encontrei "moles" (nevos, verrugas, manchas congênitas na pele), mas acho que não é bem isso. O que procuro é o termo mais adequado para sinais faciais surgidos como conseqüência do envelhecimento. Não sei se "moles" também serve para este caso.

aging spots


Explanation:
Aging spots are pigmentary changes in the skin without any medical significance. Some cells lose the ability to produce the pigment melanin, whereas others produce a bit too much of it. These changes can be thought of as an adult form of freckles. As such, they are flat, uniformly brown or tan in color, and have regular borders.
