If I believe correctly, "On Its Face" means just from the language; i.e. what you're looking at. In your example, if the contract is unconscionable on its face, then the terms and language of the contract are possibly illegal and unfair.

Just like it sounds, it means such as in the case the fradulous content is clear in its wording upon inspection.
The opposite would be such that on its face the contract is valid...but when one party did something wrongful, it is discovered that the contract technically allows the conduct.

"Prima fascia" Meaning the contract's basis (face) is faulty. Faulty in your example, anyway.

It means "based on the the text of the document itself".
As opposed to "based on how this document was applied, or the background situation that was in effect at the time".
