The decay of an embalmed body is significantly slowed compared to a non-embalmed one, but it does not stop entirely. Generally, signs of decomposition can begin to appear within a few weeks, depending on factors such as environmental conditions and the embalming techniques used. Over time, even embalmed bodies will experience changes, with complete decomposition taking several years. However, the preservation can last for decades under optimal conditions.
