1. get a lipstick cap... then just turn it on the hickey to get the blood to disperse back to where it should go...
2. or get a frozen spoon and rub it on the hickey til it goes away...
both work well... and if all else fails... wear the turtle neck...
You can't "push" the blood back, because the blood cells are dead and have formed blockages in all of the veins and arteries that were broken when the hickey was given. It's like a scab, but under your skin. THe blood doens't get "stuck in one spot" or come to the surface, the suction actually ruptures all fo the blood vessels in the surrounding area.
If the bruise was fresh, there's a slight chance that your method might work, but in this case, it's not.
