Very Slow Refresh

I have a datamodel where most of the dimension tables do not change that frequently and only one dimension table A changes frequently. I have published my PowerBI Desktop to the app and the dataset has been created in PowerBI Service. Is there a functionality to refresh only ONE or FEW dimension tables instead of the whole data model? 

 

I ask because "Refresh" is very slow sometimes. 

I have a Pro License for the organization.

you should be able to set up a refresh cycle per table, look at this documenation on how to set it up.
