Notes -
It has gotten substantially trickier on iPhones, starting with the X. Same overall process but it's very easy to accidentally damage the face ID hardware/ribbon cables, which permanently locks you out of using face ID ever again on that phone without sending it to Apple to replace both the face ID board AND the entire motherboard. Which costs more than the resale value of the phone itself.
The same "touch it and it bricks permanently" issue existed on touch ID iphones, but the placement of the face ID sensors and ribbon cable makes it even easier to accidentally break.
