It never stops changing, but there is a significant freeze around 25. From about 12-25 there are massive changes to the brain. It also coincides with them first gaining true freedom, and learning the pros and cons of that.
There was a study that stopped checking for rapid development at 25. They didn't show a "significant freeze" at 25, they just didn't gather any data after that.
It's been a while, but I thought a follow-up study found it tapered off by around 23-25. The brain never stops changing, but the explosive changes of puberty also continue for longer than expected.
