He did not. However, he did have to go to the underworld and bring back Cerebus, the three headed dog guarding the underworld, but it was Zeus who brought back Persephone.

P.S- Persephone ate 6 pomegranet seeds, so to be fair to Hades and Demeter, Persephone was forced to stay in the underworld for 6 months every year.
