Methods, systems, and computer programs for monitoring skin condition of a person. In one aspect, a method can include obtaining data representing a first image, the first image depicting skin from at least a portion of a body of a person, generating a severity score that indicates a likelihood that the person is trending towards an increased severity of an auto-immune condition or trending towards a decreased severity of an auto-immune condition, comparing, the severity score to a historical severity score, wherein the historical severity score is indicative of a likelihood that a historical image of the user depicts skin of a person having the auto-immune condition, and determining based on the comparison, whether the person is trending towards an increased severity of the auto-immune condition or trending towards a decreased severity of the auto-immune condition.
