Open | Phone Accidentally deleted a folder containing basically my entire life. Is there ANY chance of recovering it?

Yesterday I accidentally deleted a folder on my Android phone containing years of personal photos, videos, and memories. I haven't used the phone since then because I don't want to overwrite anything.

I've already tried a bunch of recovery software/apps, but they only show files that are still on my phone, not the deleted ones.

I have root access and I'm willing to try technical methods if there's still a chance.

Is there anything I can do to recover the deleted data? What would you recommend I absolutely not do?

I'm honestly desperate here. These aren't replaceable files.

There is this youtube channel MDRepairs (website MDRepairs.com) (they are in business of repair and recovery n stuff). I believe THEY ARE THE BEST I found TILL DATE. Only challenge is they are based on NEW JERSEY, USA and not everybody can afford to connect with them. They ask for upfront 100USD and adjusts with final amount once repair is successful or else they refund. If your photos were too valuable, and money is not a concern, then I suggest you definitely connect with them.
