The only thing I've ever heard of to get rid of them is to rub mayo onto the spot w/ a toothbrush. I've never tried this. I've been told the result is still an unsightly spot, so I don't see how it really works. Sorry I couldn't have been more help

massage it with a hair brush, do it fairly hard too. I'm not sure how it works, someone told me once but i forgot.

Hickeys are bruises under the skin they will go away on their own time. You can help speed it up as any bruise and place a cold compress on it. Depending on how quick you do this and the severity of the hickey it can help. Time will be the only real remedy though. Sorry.
I cannot help but remember hearing all these "remedies"when I was a teenager LOL You would NOT want to rub a hard brush or anything else on a bruise that would only make it worse not better would you rub a bruise to make it better anywhere else?
