Hard to tell from that picture, but my guess is that the scales have been bumped off. ??????

Have you tried to scrub it gently with a brush? You can put a dab of Neosporen on it.

When he is wet it changes back

He does however like to climb is walls that might explain it

Maybe it's calcium on his face if it goes back while hes wet? I agree, scrub it gently or use your finger to pet it off hopefully it works :/

My first thought was he somehow got urates on his face, mine got it on his beak...but since there is a color change that likely isn't it. I would soak him and gently rub it with your finger, drop a spot of Dawn in the water. Dawn has been used successfully on wildlife far more fragile than a Russian tort, so it won't hurt him.
