Restarting the iPhone is insufficient. The beta version of iOS will remain active until a superseding iOS version is released and installed, even if you removed the Profile.


If you installed the developer beta you need to erase and restore the iPhone, followed by restoring a backup of its last public (non-beta) release.


Refer to How to uninstall iOS or iPadOS beta software - Apple Support for explicit details.
