I am not 100% familiar with the Macan, however, generally you can remove the caliper and replace the rotor.
In order to remove the calipers, you will need to spread the brake pads, that is push them back from the rotor. The distance that they need to go back will depend if there is a lip on the top of the existing rotor due to wear.
Once you reassemble everything, you will need to push on the brake pedal a few times to reseat the pads. You will also need to “bed“ the pads to the new rotor.
