Wikimedia Commons has a few images: Start from the top category here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Diseases_and_disorders_of_the_skin

An API is available here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php

The files are quite heterogeneous. Some are drawings. I suspect they are not optimal, e.g., for training a machine learning classifier.

Besides the category system, the skin disease image files on Wikimedia Commons may also be identified with Wikidata through the Wikidata Query Service at https://query.wikidata.org, for instance, with the following SPARQL query:

#defaultView:ImageGrid
SELECT ?disease ?diseaseLabel ?image WHERE {
  ?disease wdt:P279+ wd:Q949302 ; wdt:P18 ?image .
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
}

The result is available at this link: http://tinyurl.com/ya3ogyq7

However, this query only identifies 75 images.

ISIC (International Skin Imaging Collaboration) - but with a focus on melanoma

https://isic-archive.com/

ISIC has developed and is expanding an open source public access archive (ISIC Archive) of skin images to test and validate the proposed standards. This archive serves as a public resource of images for teaching and for the development and testing of automated diagnostic systems.
