the old way
Before creating this account center, Meta had a specific web page for removing the profile. You just have to enter www.instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent/, register with your profile and you will be just three clicks away from deleting your account.
As in the previous process they will ask you why do you want to delete your accountthen you will have to enter your password again for security reasons and finally click on the button Delete and accept.
Remember that if you do this you will lose all your followers, photos, conversations and data irreversibly forever.
