How do I restore photos from iPhone 5 without backup

I accidentally restored my phone and I lost all my contacts, photos, and old texts. I didnt back anything up and I was wondering if theres a way to get in to the hard drive of the phone in order to retrieve the lost data. Is this possible or is all the information just completely gone at this point?

It is not possible to accidentally restore an iPhone. It requires the user to click several buttons to actually restore.

There is no hard drive. All iOS devices use flash memory.

Anything is possible... the question is how important is the data and how much are you willing to pay to have it recovered. Search Google for data recovery services and inquire about there pricing. Be prepared to hand over your first born, an arm, a leg, and possibly additional children not to mention a siginficant sum of cash.
