bouganvilleas, yes. You couldn't kill the thing if you tried.
hibiscus, probably won't come back. they're a tropical plant best suited for warm weather year 'round. If the frost was too extreme for too long of a time, it probably wont' come back. Your best bet would be to cut it back now, if you won't be getting any more frost, giving it time to recooperate before spring. by cutting back a majority of the branches, you'll concentrate the plant's energy into a smaller area so it doesn't have to try as hard to regenerate all of the branches.
Can hibiscus and bouganvalias be restored after frost damage?
Yes, but wait until spring until you prune them back. Frost settles from the top and if it freezes again they will die if they have been pruned. I know, my yard looks bad with all the dead looking plants, but wait until all chance of freezing has passed.
