Thanks for the reply, but my problem is a bit different. The phone is not stolen, but because of the change of appearance I wanted to reset the face id and replace it with a new one, but the phone has an stolen device protection mode and in order to make a new face id I need to remove this mode, and despite the fact that I am at home it asks for a face id, which now the phone does not accept, and not as indicated in the instructions code-password.

Do you know the Apple ID and Password?
Factory Resetting may be possibility, but you will not be able to restore from a backup, and the Apple ID/Password will be required to remove the Activation Lock.
