I got water in my phone and it blocked my front camera and that’s why my Face ID stopped working

My Face ID won’t work because I got water in my front camera but I had it removed and it still won’t work

It makes sense to make an appointment to avoid waiting since there may be limited support opening at a Genius Bar, but I don't think the pandemic policy of having to make an appointment for anything in an Apple Store is still in effect.
