Can Leg Lengthening Get Rid of Cankles and Thick Knees?

im not planning on having leg lengthening or anything, i just always hear people complaining about cankles or thick knees cause of their bone stucture and how theres no surgery to fix that, so my question is can't leg lengthening get rid of cankles and thick knees and make the leg look more slimmer? or does it do the opposite effect?
