You have to remove the caliper (two 8mm allen bolts), to take it apart, but
you may not have to take it apart, because sticking may be originating in
the inner pad sticking in its cradle, or the outer pad carrier sticking in
its slots.

If the outer piston is sticking, you may be able to free it by rotating it
and squeezing it back as if to change pads. The dust cover on that piston
may be changed in place if it is torn.
