If there are really low, then I don't think you can enhance the quality of the images in the image format that you have. I am not too sure if there are such programs that can reverse it, i doubt it, as when the image is compressed some image data is lost and is not recoverable.
Because:
JPEG file are compressed, and it uses a destructive image compression algorithm which the quality is not reversible. Therefore JPEG files has a lossy nature.

GIF
Although GIF does not have that lossy nature, but GIF files can only support up to 256 color palletes, so many colors are lost during the conversion.

Hope this helps :)
