Either the IR projector or its sensor are not working. Review Step 14 in the iPhone XS and XS Max Teardown. A star as I know you will need to visit an Apple Store or ship your phone to Apple for this part to be replaced as its tied to the phones security.

Replacing it will disrupt your access to the phone, if you can disable FaceID services.
