Restoring iPhone

I recently restored my iPhone to factory settings after being locked out due to password attempts. How can I recover the data I lost? I have been able to find detailed instructions on how to clear data, but nothing on how to get it back. I would appreciate any help.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

Retrieve it from your latest backup. You did back up the iPhone, right? If not, your data is gone.
