As a digital media expert with extensive experience in social media platforms, I've guided many users through the process of managing their account connections. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to unlink your Facebook account from Instagram.

**Step 1: Open Instagram and Navigate to Settings**
Firstly, launch the Instagram app on your device. Whether you're using an iOS or Android device, the process is quite similar. Once the app is open, you'll want to tap on the profile icon located at the bottom right corner of the screen to access your profile.

Step 2: Access Account Settings
In your profile, look for the gear icon, which represents the settings menu, and tap on it. This will take you to the settings page where you can manage various aspects of your Instagram account.

Step 3: Find Linked Accounts
Scroll down through the settings menu until you find the "Accounts" or "Linked Accounts" section. This is where Instagram lists all the external accounts that are currently connected to your Instagram profile.

Step 4: Unlink Facebook
Within the Linked Accounts section, you should see Facebook listed if it's connected to your Instagram. It will typically be highlighted with a blue checkmark next to it, indicating that it's linked. Tap on the Facebook option.

Step 5: Confirm Unlinking
After tapping on Facebook, you'll be presented with options to manage the connection. Look for the "Unlink Facebook" button. It's important to note that the wording might slightly vary depending on updates to the app. Tap on this button to initiate the unlinking process.

Step 6: Final Confirmation
Instagram may ask for a final confirmation to ensure that you indeed want to unlink your Facebook account. Confirm by tapping on the "Unlink" or "Yes" option.

Step 7: Check Unlinking Status
Once you've completed the above steps, it's a good practice to check and ensure that the Facebook account is no longer linked to your Instagram. You can do this by going back to the Linked Accounts section and confirming that Facebook is no longer listed with a checkmark.

Important Notes:
- Unlinking your Facebook account from Instagram will not affect your Instagram profile or posts. Your content will remain intact.
- If you use Facebook to find friends on Instagram or to log in, you'll need to find alternative methods after unlinking.
- Keep in mind that unlinking may affect some features that rely on the connection between Instagram and Facebook, such as sharing posts directly to Facebook.

Now that you have successfully unlinked your Facebook account from Instagram, you can continue to enjoy using Instagram without having it connected to your Facebook profile.
