My phone says that my Face ID recognize the problem and so I can no longer use my facial recognition and I’m wondering if anyone’s experienced this and what i could do about it if anything?

If Face ID isn't working for you, there is most likely something wrong with your TrueDepth camera. First, look at these two articles for help. If that doesn't fix the issue, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have your camera issue diagnosed.
