Sorry not possible ;-{
Unlike previous models which had replaceable SSD units, Apple now solders down the discreet flash chips to the logic board. And no, you can't alter them as there is no alternative chip that has larger capacity as Apple is using densest available part now.
Your only option is to use an external USB-C drive.

great answer Dan, thank you very much!!!
(although the result is not what I wanted to hear)
Is it possible to upgrade the SDD or RAM by replacing the chips.
Chinese: 炫烨 - 不可能
English: Hyun Yeh - Not possible for either
Ok what about upgrading 512 to 1TB by replacing the chips?
@alsadk - Nope! Apple made it really hard, it's not humanly possible.

For reference: MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar Teardown. Jump down to Steps 8 & 9 to see the SSD chips.
