This article refers to the influence of social media on female body image and seeks to investigate the impacts of Instagram as a dictator of a standard of body image and beauty. The established method was an experimental study of a single subject in which two levels were outlined to measure body satisfaction, with and without the use of Instagram. The study showed a good level of significance in their experiment. We recommend that the study be replicate in a larger sample of participants for a better result.
