Face ID not working on iPhone 13

Reset my face id, made sure cameras were not blocked, check settings, restarted phone and Face ID didn't work. Did all this a second time and still doesn't work. Is this a problem with the latest update?

This is for an Iphone 13 on iOS 16.6.1

iPhone 11 Face ID stopped working with new IOS update Face ID stopped working with new IOS 16.6 update from today. I’ve tried restarting my iPhone and followed other steps, but it doesn’t work. Seems the last resort is to back up and reset iPhone completely

Face ID stopped working since downloading iOS 18 Ever since I downloaded iOS 18, Face ID stopped recognising my face. I tried to reset my face, but now it keeps saying "Face ID Not Available" every time I try. I have tried to restart my phone, that's done nothing. I have an iPhone 14

Contact Apple Support, and discuss your options and alternatives. i’d expect this to be failing hardware.
