When you take a whisk to the affected area of a hickey, you are essentially spreading old pockets of blood around so that they no longer coagulate at the surface of the skin.
However, though effective, this way comes with certain risks, according to dermatologist Dr. Beth Goldstein.
Goldstein, talking to Insider, said that she'd recommend "time and coverup makeup" to deal with the hickey rather than "create more injury." The injury risk comes when the person applies the pressure of the whisk too greatly, potentially damaging major blood vessels.
Not tik tok teaching me to use a metal whisk to get rid of a hickey and it working— \ud835\udcbd\u212f\ud835\udcce\ud835\udcc1\ud835\udcc1\ud835\udcbe\u212f (@\ud835\udcbd\u212f\ud835\udcce\ud835\udcc1\ud835\udcc1\ud835\udcbe\u212f) 1611710721

I\u2019m sure by now a lot of you have seen that tiktok where the girl gets rid of a hickey by rubbing a whisk on it. I\u2019m not sure if I believe it, if only there was a handsome man who could test that with me— Katie \ud83e\udd8b (@Katie \ud83e\udd8b) 1612072888
so here\u2019s a before and after with 5 min of whisking. not totally gone but reduced drastically. you literally just put the head of the whisk on the hickey and twist back and forth for 5 min or until it\u2019s gone. it does take some pressure but definitely reduces the bruising.pic.twitter.com/7uzPeXppAd— sawah (@sawah) 1612202071

The hack has now gone completely viral and is saving the lives of teenagers and professionals everywhere--teens, from their parents, and professionals, from their workplaces.
Though some people did report the hack did not exactly work for them, but others were reminiscing on their old-timey tactics for hiding and getting rid of hickeys:
