About 4 to 6 weeks. Talk to a doctor, and they'll tell you for sure.
The healing time of bruises cannot be reduced. Brusing is caused by vascular leakage of red blood cells into the surrounding tissue. Creams and remedies touting decreased healing time have no research to substantiate such claims. In fact, studies have disproven the effectiveness of many claimed remedies including the homeopathic treatment, Arnica.
It depends what type (how severe) it is.
Here is a list of the color of the bruise, from worst to best:
Even If you have a purple bruise, then it's not that bad. The worst thing to do to a bruise is to touch it, especially pushing on it. leave it alone, and it will heal in a couple of days.

If there are other bad signs, go see your doctor, or if they are horrible, call 911!

I am sure you have had a bruise on your body in the past, a black or blue mark that fades to green or yellow before fading altogether. Abnormal bruising is just that, abnormal, bruises that do not behave like normal bruises: black or blue marks that follow veins (infection), bruises so painful that movement is hindered, bruises that have something solid in them, bruises that get larger, bruises of non-bruise colors (red, white), etc.
a week or so depending on the severity but facial bruises recover faster than other areas since it is so well vascularized.

Bruises don't scar. They can take a long time to fade though.
