If someone is looking for this but for Google account using FirebaseAuth. I have found a workaround for this. If you detail the picture URL:

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/../.../.../.../s96-c/photo.jpg

The /s96-c/ specifies the image size (96x96 in this case)so you just need to replace that value with the desired size.

String url= FirebaseAuth.getInstance().getCurrentUser().getPhotoUrl();
url = url.replace("/s96-c/","/s300-c/");

You can analyze your photo URL to see if there is any other way to change its size.

As I said in the begining, this only works for Google accounts. Check @Mathias Brandt 's answer to get a custom facebook profile picture size.

EDIT 2020:

Thanks to Andres SK and @alextouzel for pointing this out. Photo URLs format have changed and now you can pass URL params to get different sizes of the picture. Check https://developers.google.com/people/image-sizing.
