formula partial bleed to remove air

I just shortened the hoses on some formula brakes and need to remove the air from the lines. THe brakes work ok, but clearly have air in them.

Can I remove the air with out doing a complete bleed procedure? What I'm trying to avoid is removing the calipers and attaching a syringe at that end? Is it possible to bleed just from the lever end successfully? The brakes have been ridden on for about 25 miles...
