It will take time: The force exerted against your skin ruptured capillaries and vessels, causing blood leakage into the extracellular space, causing the bruised appearance and the red dots, or petechiae. It will take time for these vessels to heal and time for your body to clear the area of the leaked blood cells. You can use makeup to cover it like a black eye or a blemish, but it will take some days to resolve.
