It depends on how you formatted it, if you overwrote with zeros then it's gone for good. But if you just formatted it with the default settings then at least part of the data is likely still there.

You can try to recover it yourself, but unfortunately many times that can make things worse. You could also look into having a professional data recovery service do a data recovery for you, but that will cost money, (I don't know how much). It pretty much depends on how important you consider the data to be.
