Ugh I wish I could help! Shaving was the only thing I tried while on Accutane, because I'd already had such a bad reaction to waxes/hair removal creams while on much milder medications. Thin skin + hot wax = not fun! But I know how you feel; I have fair skin & dark hair so even the lightest stubble stands out.
How would your legs look if you only shaved once a week? Sometimes we hype up things because of how much attention we pay to ourselves, meanwhile other people are too caught up in their own insecurities to notice yours. I'm not saying your concern is invalid because obviously you know your body and hair growth better than anyone (did that sound weird? Haha I feel like it did!), but it's just something to consider.
Sorry if this was totally useless comment. I just thought I'd share my support as a fellow Accutane survivor lol because I know how crappy it can get sometimes! Best of luck :)

I think there is a shaving pad? Where you just have to rub lightly on the skin and the hair comes off.

Um I'm not 100 percent sure. Sorry aha but I'll check right now :)

Use an e45 cream or something similar I use my eczema cream to shave with and just run a razor over it. Then use a body butter over the top. I recommend a strong scented one as e45 smells Ming.

I don't know what it's called but it came out a while back, it's kind of like a roller the size of a razor and it pulls the hairs out instead of cutting them. I think I saw it at like ulta not too long ago.

Or use those razors by Venus the ones that have the little gel soap kind of things on the side those are super gentle!

I read some reviews on the hair removing pads and people are saying they work pretty well 😋 I think I might actually try it now haha. I have really sensitive underarms😁

That actually makes me feel better, because my legs are the same! This may sound odd but I think the reason why the stubble doesn't bother me anymore is because prior to my acne medication, I waxed my legs. But I would get lazy or busy and go months without getting a wax, and by the time I did go my legs looked like fur vests x) It was honestly so bad, so I think in comparison to the hairy mess my legs used to be, this doesn't seem so bad. Anyway, I hope you find a solution! If all else fails just tell people you're working on hair growth to keep you warm in the winter (or to donate to some charity, because people will believe anything these days lol!)

I have really sensitive legs and I shave with Venus spa breeze razor, it has soap gel things on each side, they are very gentle for me and don't irritate me at all but they are quite expensive but I use nothing else, I hate getting my legs waxed, not worth the pain for me to be honest and I get red bumps when I do get them waxed :/

Aha that's perfect then.
I can't believe I forgot to mention this...if you do want to consider shaving, I would recommend using a men's razor. Because it's meant for the face it's very gentle and I find it has a closer shave which will last you a bit longer. Depending on which brand you get, they're not crazy expensive either.

What about a No No? I think they're expensive though. Lol, I can't think of anything that hasn't already been said, but good luck!!

Yeah, I could never pay that much money for something like that, even if I could afford.
