There's also facies dolorosa which is defined as "facial expression of an unhappy person or one sick or in pain".
https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/facies dolo...
There is a fair amount of hits. However, if you eliminate hits related to the book by Hans Killian, there's not much left so I decided not to suggest it as answer.

: Definitely not “pained expression” (or anything) as that has a completely different meaning in English to the one intended here
