Hi lybrate-user Tattoo's are permanent as the ink used for making them is impregnated slightly deep under the skin. No balms can help treat tattoos. The only proven therapy is Surgery or Laser. Lasers have a drawback that you need multiple sittings and it works on specific colours only, not on all. Also, lasers can cause burns, if not used properly. Surgery is the safest option for tattoo removal. Please consult a Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon for best results.
