How to Get Rid of A Hickey
1. Hickeys
Ok, so we all know that hickeys are the result of an overzealous set of lips suction-cupping themselves to an area of skin and sucking until surface blood vessels break, right? Right, so I won't elaborate on the subject any more here.
2. How to Get Rid of a Hickey
The question remains, once all of that blood is trapped right beneath the skin's surface, how do you get rid of it?Tips for Hiding and Removing Hickeys
- If you catch the hickey soon enough, your can minimize the mark by immediately applying ice.
- Surface stimulation will help disperse the blood. Gently rub and massage the area.
- Using a comb or a hairbrush to massage the area works better than fingers and hands.
- Using any tubular object with a domed end, apply steady pressure over the hickey and twist. It will hurt, but it will help. Lipstick caps, pen caps, and blistex caps work. The goal is to work the blood deeper into the skin.
- Make the hickey worse - if you use a curling iron, have your 'friend' reshape the hickey to match the pattern that it would make if you had burned yourself accidentally. This can work with any likely burn or bruise scenario.
Do not burn yourself! Reshape the hickey with more suction. - Utilize turtleneck sweaters, scarves, or makeup to cover it up.
- Rub vitamin K into the area.
- Apply a warm, moist, used tea-bag as a hot compress. Repeatedly re-wet and re-warm it as needed until the hickey disappears.

So my boyfriend snuck over and one thing lead to another as everyone says and he went home before my granparents come home but now I have this thing around my neck because he left me a hicky. Wonderful right? Wron I’m 16 and he’s 19 I was freaked because I don’t know what to do and I don’t have 17 to a half an hour tying to get this hicky off my neck is there a quicker solution???
So I’ve been dating this older guy for awhile now, and when i was at his house on thursady night he gave me a fat hickie. and my school’s winter formal was on saturday. it wasnt a problem until the day of the dance, i didnt want there to be a ton of pictures of me at my junior winter formal with a hickie. i tried a few different spoon tricks none of them worked for me. so then i tried rubbing it with a hair brush for a few minutes and it worked a little, then i put a used tea bag on it and it made it more red, but then it disapaited.
These tips really work, even if you don’t use them right away. As long as the bruise is still forming, the process can be reversed. In my case, I was able to make the hickey almost completely disappear 12 hours after I got it (granted mine was a relatively small hickey.
Make sure to ice after digging and massaging the hickey, otherwise your neck will swell where the hickey was.
So I was with an old friend last night, and we were watching Zombie Land, yes Zombie Land. I know total turn on movie right? Well anyway, we are both absolutely physical people, who have been single for a while. Well lying on a bed alone in a dark room leads to things. Needless to say I’m pissed he broke his own rule of “no Hickeys.” So I got up early this morning and have bee doing the massaging thing and tea bag, drinking the chi tea was better then the bag, but the massaging worked, just something I can explain away with “I hit myself with my tennis racket” not the first time… hehe Good look you crazy ppl… btw thirteen year old should not need these tips and definitely should not be sneaking out… oh and STOP CHEATING!!! it’s just lazy!!!
So, tonight me and my boyfriend were making out and he started lifting up my shit and i felt into it so i kept letting him and he started sucking from the top of my boob down. well, the thing is i have a really important dance tomorrow at 8pm and the hickey is right above my dress and its strapless theres no way i can hide it. HELP!
Me and bf has been going out a while and my ex came over and left 4 hickies on my neck and me and the bf have made up and he wants to see me tonight there not big they’re real small but im not sure if the tips are working wat to do:(
Rub it with a quarter to stretch it out. then rub visine on it every hour or two until the redness is gone
Sammys tips really worked I gave my girlfriend a hickie on accident after sexxy time when her parents were gone and she has sensitive skin and bruises really easy so I thought I whas screwed….well I wasn’t we put a frozen water bottle on her neck then rubbed it with the round end of the spoon then put the frozen water on it again and rubbed it out and waa laaa. Very very faint hickie
Yesterday night ¡ came home from chylling w. My boyfriend & my mom pointed out 2 huge hickeys on my neck , she was really upset w. Me so ¡ had 2 do something 2 get rid of it. So what ¡ did was :
Put a cold spoon on it 4 a couple mins. , then ¡ used a hair brush 2 massage it , then ¡ put a warm cloth on it , then ¡ used a blistex cap 2 apply pressure & twist . . Its gone 4 the most part (:
Oh my gosh…. I just got back to my room from this boy I’ve been hookin up with’s room in college and my neck looked like it was going to explode… literally… It was bright red. literally , I could see the blood under my skin. it was like. bulging. HUGE… and I immediately put the ice on my neck like the top of the article says. after that, i looked at a few of these responses… and Sammy’s really worked. (the one right below this..) like it REALLY worked.
Sammy’s tips really worked.
•Rub a cold spoon (the rounded part) on it until its warm. Then keep rubbing with the spoon for like 3 minutes.
•Get a brush and rub it for a minute
•Rub with a hot wash cloth for 10 minutes
•Rub with the top of a lipstick container for 1 minute.
After doing all these things… it was REALLY not noticeable. And I have sensitive skin so I was worried. Thank you so much Sammy!
It looks like i was scratching my skin now that I’ve done it. Its just pink!
I am SOOOOOO thankful! The only difference is… being in college, I don’t have metal silverwear, or ice. So… I used my iced bottle of vodka to ice my neck. but hey! whatever works!
