Handling noise in Pixinsight with Vaonis telescopes non-destructively

A quick question to you all guys, along this beautiful captured M33. How do you handle noise in your image in Pixinsight with a non-destructive workflow?

In my opinion, it is quite random with the Vaonis telescopes how much noise you get in your raw's. If light pollution is slightly there, you can expect much more gradient and a lot more noise, it seems. Even with NoiseXTerminator you have a hard to edit picture.

If I am looking at another picture from a "normal" amateur rig, they seem to have much less noise in their raw's.

Even if I am collecting up to 8 hours of data, it's quite terrible in comparison. What is the reason and can someone help me?

Hello,

What you mention about Vaonis is valid also for other setups but in any case, I don’t think you can get noise reduction to be a non-destructive process. But you issue seems to be not getting the result you expect, I think - could you please let us know your workflow?
