I was wondering if it is necessary to do water changes once your tank is fully cycled

Yes water changes are needed. You need to have a better understanding of the nitrogen cycle.

Same idea. Some water changes are still desirable even with plenty of plants. Without plants or some other way to remove nitrates, water changes are essential. Track your nitrate levels and aim for below 20-50 ppm depending on the species.
