Is my phone salvageable?

I dropped my phone in a puddle on the sidewalk while it was raining yesterday and dried it off as best as I could. Later that day I noticed water in the front camera and and got a message stating Face ID was not working.

Waking up today, my iPhone 12 pro's screen was dim despite turning the brightness up, prompting me to shut down my iPhone. Then the apple logo kept flashing on and off. I first tried to force restart my iPhone which then told me to connect it to my Mac to try to restore it which failed.

Is there anything I can do?
