Her current face isn't her old face either.
Undrneath:
Are AI's as "attached" to their skin as us meatbags so as to be traumatized by its possibly drastic change?
Is it cold in here?:

May's traumatized?

We don't know but it's possible. Depends on just how bad a place Robot Jail is.

Sure, it's possible. It's possible that any of the many many people Faye has met, for example, in the cafe while she was working there could have been traumatized at some point in their lives.
Is there some concrete reason that you think that Faye's teasing might cause real damage? Because to me she simply seems to be nervous in a way that is perfectly normal and healthy for someone whose face is being operated on while awake.
Is it cold in here?:
Concretely, May has just emerged from an environment where she was frighteningly vulnerable. If I'd had someone threaten to toss me into an incinerator(*), I might twitch a bit when someone exulting at using flensing tools on me.
Less concretely, since Robot Jail is "horrible" (strip 2503), it might have psychological effects analogous to harsh prisons for humans (warning: it's rough reading).
(*)Apparently plausibly, since May didn't rule out the possibility that Momo could follow through.
