She had recently undergone the procedure at a clinic in Bogotá, Colombia, in the early hours of Saturday (22 Nov).
Mayerly, whose music spanned both pop and local folk genres, died while being treated at a hospital in Facatativá after complications arose.
She was originally from La Sierra, in the Quipile municipality, and leaves behind two children, aged 11 and 13.
Dubbed locally “The Voice of Quipile”, her musical journey began at just 14, as reported by Need To Know.
Her rendition of No supiste perder – You Didn’t Know How to Lose – has 58,000 views on YouTube.
Her music video for Con tus chiros a otra parte – Take Your Cash Somewhere Else – was released only last week.
Her manager and close friend, Néstor, said: “Her voice and passion for music represented all our people.
“We will remember her for her humility and the joy she brought in every song.”
Authorities are now investigating.
The specific cosmetic procedure she underwent has not been widely disclosed.
