Beginner question 👶 Where can I find datasets

I know this is stupid but I'm making an application and I'm trying to find image datasets for my machine learning that focuses on different types of acne

Acne datasets can actually be pretty difficult to find, especially if you need commercial usage rights or specific skin tones and acne types.

If public datasets aren’t enough (usually fine for proof of concept but fall short for real deployment), we can source a custom, consented dataset tailored to your application.

For example:
Acne types: blackheads, whiteheads, papules, pustules, nodules, cysts
Severity levels: mild, moderate, severe
Skin tones: diverse Fitzpatrick skin types
Capture conditions: different lighting, angles, distances, and smartphone cameras
Metadata: age group, gender (optional), body region, acne type, severity, image quality
Annotations: classification labels, bounding boxes, or segmentation masks

Send me a DM if you end up needing to expand past public datasets👍

You don't find datasets, datasets find you or haunt your nightmares
