Just give it time. They can take a while to regain their full glory. I've noticed strong currents can sometimes make the polyps extend less and their are differences in the shape and length of the polyps between different types of toadstools.

It's kinda a fuzzy picture and all, but he doesn't really look that bad to me. Not all toadstools are the same and some will have longer more fuller extention than others with smaller polyps.
