You will want to follow step 3 from the Related Article, linked above:


3· If you still can't enroll your face or unlock your device with Face ID, you can take your device to an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, or contact Apple Support about your iPhone or your iPad.


There is likely something wrong with the TrueDepth Camera hardware used by Face ID.
