Yeah the fact that it absorbs the opponent's spirit and gives it to him, explains why he was completely healed after that fight, so you are probably right that he didn't use bankai. He might not even be capable, as he stated in an episode that he doesn't get along with his zanpaktou very well because it is almost as vain as he is.
