If that fails to resolve the issue, there’s probably a hardware problem, and a hardware repair is probably ahead.

Your options are to use your device with no Face ID, or a hardware repair, or a replacement with a newer (used, refurb) or new iPhone or iPad Pro.

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.

My phone fell inside water and I removed it instantly and took it to an engineer to dry it but the Face ID says disabled please how can I restore it


In addition to what Katana-San has provided:



See the section "What should I do if my iPhone gets wet?"


Do not use rice, as that can mean getting wet and eventually rotting rice dust into places where it can cause yet further problems.


Then what to do if the problem persists after drying:



If that fails to resolve the issue, there’s probably a hardware problem, and a hardware repair is probably ahead, as Katana-San suspects.

This Support article is specific to seeing a 'disabled' Face ID alert, and explains what to do when you see that notice or an issue with the TrueDepth camera. --> If an alert says Face ID has been disabled on your iPhone or iPad Pro - Apple Support

Unless a software update solves the problem you may need to have Apple take a look at your device. Use this link to set up an appointment —> Genius Bar Reservation and Apple Support Options - Apple and this one to get a repair estimate —> iPhone Repair & Service - Apple Support
