After iOS 14.8 update, I can't use Face ID

Once I updated new iOS 14.8, I couldn’t use Face ID suddenly. It’s very hard for me to push passwords every time. Could you support me?

Hello. Thank you for your information. I have done from 1 to 8 you advised to improve. However it wasn’t solved. Is it possible for any of parts such as sensor or camera not to properly work by any chance? Or some of people have been consulting this phenomenon by the updating? I’m hesitating to consult with apple store.
