The Battery Capacity is an estimation based on the battery condition. What version of the iPhone is this? You say that when you bought it that it displayed 88%. Did you purchase this device new? While I've not seen a device go from 88% to 99%, if you are concerned, you can make an appointment with Apple and they can connect to the device and diagnose the battery.
