I believe that there is a team of conservators, working on maintaining the corps.

Until the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the continued preservation work was funded by the Soviet government. At that point the government discontinued financial support and private donations then supported the preservation staff.^[10] In 2016 the Russian government reversed its earlier decision and said it planned to spend 13 million rubles to preserve the body.^[11]

I would think that as more and more was replaced by wax, the cost of preservation would fall over time.
