The simplest way to resize an UIImage?

In my iPhone app, I take a picture with the camera, then I want to resize it to 290*390 pixels. I was using this method to resize the image :

For Swift 5:

extension UIImage {
  func resized(to newSize: CGSize) -> UIImage? {
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(newSize, false, 0)
    defer { UIGraphicsEndImageContext() }

    draw(in: CGRect(origin: .zero, size: newSize))
    return UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
  }
}
