If it is a 2nd or 3rd generation iPhone SE, see the following from Delete and recover messages on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

A 2nd and 3rd generation SE can be update to iOS 16.2.


Retrieve a deleted message or conversation

  1. In Messages, tap Edit.
  2. Tap Show Recently Deleted .
  3. Choose the conversations with the messages you want to restore, then tap Recover.
  4. Tap Recover Message or Recover [Number] Messages.

You need iOS 16, iPadOS 16.1, or later to recover deleted messages and conversations. You can only recover messages and conversations that you deleted within the last 30 to 40 days.
