At the very least not with a lefort 1. Lefort 1 with impaction can reduce gingival show when smiling at best. Main differences from a lefort 1 from the front will be seen in the philtrum. This is true even for downgrafting as well. The midface is hard to shorten or lengthen. Face length is quite genetic and changing the underlying bone structure doesnt guarantee changes in soft tissue especially if you’re going to decrease bone mass as your facial muscles, fascia, skin have developed for a face of that length. Altering some other ratios may be your best bet. Appearance of a long face can be caused by narrow ipd, long lower third and/or high hairline etc

okay so what should I expect to look better? And to what degree? Ill have to hop on some sort of igf-1 inhancing drug to help with then I'm guessing.

How much impaction can be done depends on how much gum you are showing while smiling. But CCW rotation and advancement (I assume this is what you need) can give you the illusion of a shorter midface and make your proportions look a lot better without actually shortening the face much.

What do drugs have to do with anything?
