Run PhotoRec. In Options, enable the expert mode, start the recovery, when asked, choose a blocksize of 512, use the default values otherwise.
Please tell us if you recover your data this way.

Re: after format no files found on disk?
Is it an SSD with TRIM enabled ? If it's the case, it can explain why no files have been recovered.
Re: after format no files found on disk?
yes it is external SSD and Trim was enabled. recovery options possible?
Thank you.
