You can set an age limit on your Instagram account so that only users above a certain age will be able to follow you.
To set an age limit, you'll need to have an Instagram Business or Creator account.
You can set individual age limits for every country that users might visit you from, or one single age limit for everyone.
You have to be 13 or older to join Instagram. However, there are some things posted on Instagram that might not be appropriate for even teenagers.
