I was born with a birth defect, the dome of my skull is very flat and missing volume. Circumference of my head is 55.5 cm Is there a implant that I can get put in to make my head look normal?

Yes there is surgery for a flat head.
An implant can be made of silicone and placed there like a chin implant. We create this effect while we have a tissue expander in place. See an experienced reconstructive scalp surgeon very familiar with this type of procedure.
