Can Instagram Account Deletion / Closure Be Reversed?

We answered the question 'How to delete an Instagram account?' However, for those who regret the process, there is an option to reverse it. After the account deletion process, there is a 30-day grace period. During this time, your account is not completely deleted, and you have the chance to reverse the decision. After the 30-day period, your account will be permanently closed and cannot be recovered. Therefore, it is essential to carefully consider your decision before starting the account closure process.
