How To Treat Bruise Turned Dark On Cheekbone Due To An Injury?

My friend got socked in the face pretty hard almost exactly 2 days ago, and the bruise was a bit oddly-coloured on the top lid (just enough to look like heavy make-up or something) but a really dark purplish black on the bottom, more on his cheekbone than the actual eye. But it didn't swell much (first question: is this part normal? Only enough swelling to make his eye kinda... squinty?).
It's healing like freakishly fast, and is a purplish/red colour now, and a lot smaller, wrapping an inch and a half or so around his eye, again more on the bottom than the top, where it had first been touching a bit of his cheekbone.Is this normal, or is there something weird going on...?
