If u dont have enough time to render to reduce the noise, u can try this to fix.

Neat Image is an image filter to reduce noise and grain in photographic images produced by digital cameras and scanners.

Neat Image is indispensable in low-light (indoors, night, no-flash, astro) and high-speed (sport, action, children) photography, as well as in raytracing CG.
Neat Image provides the most accurate noise reduction currently available

Neat Image efficiently reduces noise of the following types:

- high ISO noise in digital camera shots
- film grain in scanned film and prints
- JPEG artifacts and more

Neat Image is currently available as:

standalone application (Windows, Mac OSX or Linux)
plug-in for Photoshop (Windows or Mac OSX)
plug-in for Aperture (Mac OSX)
custom bundles of above versions

I'm interested in this software, which I think would be very useful in rendering.

: original octane render. 30min.

: neat image filtered

: an apparent contrast

: not obvious difference between the two pics

Yep i'm using it too,

Just one precision for better result make huge render, and don't use hotpixel filter in octane.

You need less samples and can downscale it after neat image filtering.

Edit: Lool I use Akvis Noise Buster, I was wrong on the name but fonctionnality is very similar
