They will remain in the Recently deleted photo for 30 days. If it has been longer than that time or you deleted them from the Recently Deleted folder then they are no longer available for you to recover on your device.
If you are not using iCloud Photos and have a backup that included those folders, you could restore them from that backup, otherwise you would have needed to save them in another location before deleting.
If you deleted the photos less than 30 days ago – and have not permanently deleted them by deleting them from the Recently Deleted album itself – see the "Recover deleted photos and videos" section of
This is a little different:
If you don't use iCloud Photos, but you have Settings>Apple ID>iCloud Backup turned on, then you may be able to recover data from the last 30 days or so. You should look here:
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
“Restore” is what you do when you buy a new phone, so this safety, if you have it set, requires you to erase everything on your phone and replace it with the backup.
Open the Photos app, go to Albums, scroll down to Recently Deleted, unlock it, select your photos, and tap Recover. If they’re not there, check iCloud.com under Photos → Recently Deleted, or restore from an iCloud or computer backup.
If they're still in there, restore them normally. Otherwise, you'll need to have kept a copy somewhere else to be able to recover them.
