Remove suspicious followers gradually instead of deleting hundreds at once, because sudden mass removals can trigger Instagram security checks or temporary action limits.
Focus first on accounts with no profile photo, random usernames, zero posts, or extremely low follower-to-following ratios, since these are common signs of fake followers.
Use Instagram’s “Remove follower” option manually rather than blocking large batches through third-party tools.
Instagram has increased enforcement against automation services, and aggressive cleanup apps can sometimes cause additional reach or account trust issues.
After cleanup, revoke Plixi or other growth-service access from Instagram’s Apps and Websites settings and change your password to disconnect automated activity.
Then rebuild engagement naturally through Reels, Stories, comments, and niche-targeted content, because authentic interactions help restore account quality signals over time.
These are key methods that we can offer. If you have more, please share.
