Helping teenagers and adults alike to read an explicit mention of image manipulation can certainly remove some self-criticism that many Instagram consumers impose to themselves.

Is there an actual positive use case to teenagers using instagram?

It seems overall very similar to smoking. It is bad for you; there are strong network effects, as in teenagers get peer pressure to do it if everyone else is doing it; it is difficult to get them to stop once they start; it is difficult to prevent them from starting.
