It depends on the severity of dehydration. It may take 24 hours to one week.
Assuming simple dehydration in a healthy patient, almost immediately after rehydration. Kidney damage would occur only if severe and prolonged. Should have prolonged symptoms low pressure other issues for damage to occur.
Once you have had enough fluids and there is nothing causing continued loss of fluids then almost immediately.
