The formatting won't wipe/erase the data before new data occupied their old places until you saved some new files to the same sd after formatting, even if you twice formatted sd card or formatted sd/microSD card several times, the deleted data can still be restored.
The best for undo sd card formatting is to keep SD memory card from further use before it was recovered. So stop using the media card right away. And use read-only program iCare Pro Free, which is 100% safe, that won't write data to the formatted sd card. (*read-only means it only read data from the sd card and it won't write a single data to the sd card that provides a 100% data safety.)
