It seems to me that the list of terms are not exclusive, denoting the same area of the face. 'sienes' is also from the temple down the sides
Parte de la cara humana, situada a cada lado de ella, comprendida entre la frente, la oreja y la mejilla.

agree  neilmac: Like phil says, sideburns is usually "patillas", but maybe it's a special kind (de punta, cuadrada... etc,).
