Does anyone have experience with this
How does one restore the page?

Your friend could try to appeal if his/her use of the trademark term is for a different class of goods than that of the complainant. Is the disputed trademark term a famous trademark? Is it a distinctive trademark? What country does he/she reside and where is the complainant based?
If IG denies the appeal, then your friend is SOL. Bottom line, their site, their rules.
