How can I recover a text thread that I accidentally deleted?

Delete a message or conversation
When you delete a message or conversation, you can't get it back. So make sure that you save important information from your messages.
Though restore from backup is an option but you need to restore the entire iPhone (only messages restoration option does not exists) including all apps, Photos, Videos, Voice Memos, Notes on your iPhone etc...
The question is when did you backup and when did you delete...Read on...
Date1 : Backup date
Date2 : Message Deletion Date
Date3 : Current Date / Restore Date
Given that --> Date1 < Date2 < Date3
Risk of restoring on Date3: You may lose data between the Date1 & Date 3
Mitigation: Create Multiple backup on iTunes for the same device. (By default iTunes creates incremental backup over the existing backup such that you only will have one backup per device on iTunes)
