backgroundImage on UIButton scales wrongly

Question

I'm trying to give my UIButton a new background image when the user pressed the button and then animate the width. Problem is that the button doesn't scale the image (I'm only using retina images).

Before click:

After click:

And the code that makes things happen:

UIImage *buttonProfileDefault = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"Profile_Button_Default"] resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(3, 3, 3, 3)];
        [self.profileButton setBackgroundImage:buttonProfileDefault forState:UIControlStateNormal];

[self.profileButton removeConstraint:self.profileButtonConstraint];

// Animate
CGRect originalFrame = self.profileButton.frame;
originalFrame.size.width = 40;
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.2f
    animations:^{
        self.profileButton.frame = originalFrame;
    }
        completion:^(BOOL finished) {
    }];

try this code...

    [UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
    [UIView setAnimationDuration:1.0];
    [self.profileButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"Profile_Button_Default"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
    [self.profileButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"Profile_Button_Default"] forState:UIControlStateSelected];
    [self.profileButton setFrame:CGRectMake(self.profileButton.frame.origin.x, self.profileButton.frame.origin.y, self.profileButton.frame.size.width + 40, self.profileButton.frame.size.height)];
    [UIView commitAnimations];

i hope this help you...
