>>89777870yes, that's when he was "undercover"
he still had his fucked up face he just was taking drugs to relax his muscles so his smile wasn't there and other stuff to look normal
it's explained in Endgame
he fell from the cliff, almost died or died, fell in the river and the currents brought him a cave with this dionysum stuff that is pretty much a better version of the lazaru's pit so he got cured and got his face back
